Maria Wells , LPC

Maria Wells is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Wyoming with four years of clinical experience. She supports people facing stress and anxiety, those coping with addictions, survivors of trauma and abuse, and individuals navigating grief and loss. Maria approaches each person with respect for their personal story, believing that the client is the expert on their own life and that they already hold strengths that can be called on during difficult times.

Her work emphasizes collaboration - she listens closely to each client’s goals and tailors support to match those priorities. Beginning therapy often requires courage, and Maria acknowledges that first step while offering steady, nonjudgmental guidance as clients explore change and healing. Her style is grounded in practical strategies and compassionate understanding, aimed at helping people build resilience and move forward in ways that fit their lives.

As an LPC licensed in Wyoming, Maria combines professional training with a client-focused outlook to create a therapeutic environment that respects each person’s pace and perspective.

Therapeutic Approaches and Remote Care Options

Maria Wells uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, collaborative space where the client's perspective guides the work - this approach helps people clarify values, build self-esteem, and make changes at their own pace. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and patterns and learning practical skills to manage anxiety, stress, and addictive behaviors. In addition, EMDR is part of her toolbox for addressing trauma-related memories and distress when clients and therapist decide it is an appropriate option.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Maria works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best align with their needs, goals, and preferences. That process is flexible and revisited as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Maria includes video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for varied schedules and comfort levels. These remote options can make it easier to access support from licensed professionals and therapists without extensive travel, allowing people to engage in therapy in ways that fit their daily life.
