About Maria
Maria Myslewicz-Weese is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in North Carolina with 12 years of professional experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She also addresses issues such as self-esteem, motivation, grief, and anger.
Her work focuses on practical conversations and clear goals. Sessions often involve looking at thoughts and behaviors, practicing new ways to respond, and noticing what matters most in daily life. She uses evidence-informed approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered listening.
Maria draws on emotionally-focused work and elements of the Gottman Method when relationships are part of the concern. That can mean learning specific communication skills and trying small, repeatable changes to how people connect. For people carrying long-term stress, she pays attention to patterns that drain energy and contribute to frustration or resentment.
She aims for straightforward collaboration rather than jargon. Together with the person in therapy she clarifies what they want to change and sets short-term steps to try between sessions. Progress is tracked by what the person notices in their daily life, such as fewer outbursts, calmer responses, or better sleep.
Maria works in English and does not accept international clients. Her approach is practical and focused on skills people can use outside the session to manage anger and related concerns.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking committed action despite difficult emotions. It helps people who want to reduce reactive responses and build more flexible ways of moving toward what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers specific exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is practical for anger, sleep problems, and anxiety. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on emotional experience in close relationships and can guide communication and repair when intimacy or connection is strained.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Maria will work with each person to choose which methods fit their needs and goals. That discussion is collaborative and can change as progress is made or new issues arise.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also supports using worksheets and in-the-moment coaching during sessions so people can practice new responses to anger between meetings.
