About Maria

Maria ("Mali") Jimenez, LCSW, CSW, LICSW, is a licensed clinical social worker based in Colorado with seven years of experience supporting people through life transitions and emotional challenges. Her credentials reflect clinical social work licensure and social work certification - LCSW and LICSW indicate clinical social work licensure, while CSW denotes a social work credential. She has practiced across nonprofit and hospital settings as well as in private practice, bringing a range of clinical perspectives to each therapeutic relationship.

Maria focuses on anxiety, depression, relationship and attachment concerns, trauma and abuse, and issues related to self-esteem, grief, and addiction. She also works with clients on family and parenting challenges, intimacy and sexual concerns, eating and sleep difficulties, career and life-change transitions, and compassion fatigue. Her additional focus areas include abandonment and attachment wounds, codependency, communication difficulties, dissociation, and family of origin patterns.

Her style blends compassion with clinical precision. She applies a mindfulness-informed somatic lens to help clients build awareness of thoughts, feelings, and bodily experience, pairs cognitive behavioral techniques with psychodynamic exploration of early relationship patterns, and draws on attachment-based principles to address longstanding relational patterns. Maria invites clients to lead their process while offering collaborative guidance and gentle challenge to support meaningful change. She provides therapy in English and Spanish and works with international clients.

Integrating Attachment, CBT, and Mindfulness Online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on understanding how early relationships shape current patterns - it helps people address intimacy, abandonment, and trust issues by exploring relational history and building safer ways of connecting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and body-focused practices that can reduce reactivity, support emotional regulation, and complement work on trauma and somatic symptoms.



Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Maria collaborates with each person to tailor methods to their needs, goals, and preferences. She combines approaches when helpful and invites clients to guide the pace while offering clinical structure and challenge to facilitate growth.

These formats make it easier to access licensed professionals from varied locations, support consistent engagement during life transitions, and allow clients to choose the communication mode that feels most effective for their work.
