About Maria
Maria "Mali" Jimenez is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Colorado with seven years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, depression, addictions, grief, and family of origin issues. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and she accepts international clients.
Mali uses clear, straightforward work in sessions. She combines attention to present thoughts and behaviors with exploration of early relationship patterns. That can mean learning practical coping skills one week and talking about difficult family roles the next.
Her approach draws on several methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Attachment-based ideas look at how early bonds shape current relationship patterns. Mindfulness practices are used to increase awareness of emotions and bodily responses.
Clients can expect a mix of skill-building and reflective work. Mali encourages people to identify small, manageable steps for change. She also examines how family expectations or childhood roles keep showing up in adult life.
Mali has worked in nonprofit and hospital settings as well as private practice. She holds LCSW, CSW, and LICSW credentials, with licensure in Colorado and Washington DC. Cost varies by location and sessions operate via a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How Mali’s approaches work in online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early bonds affect current relationships. In sessions this can mean mapping familiar roles from childhood and seeing how they show up in adult interactions, which helps with relationship patterns and commitment concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Online work often includes practicing new ways of thinking, tracking patterns between sessions, and setting small behavioral experiments to test changes.
Mindfulness techniques help people notice emotions and bodily responses without getting lost in them. Practicing short, focused exercises during remote sessions can build awareness that supports coping with anxiety, stress, or impulse-related struggles.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively with the client to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That may mean moving between skills-focused CBT, attachment-focused reflection, or mindfulness work over several sessions.
