About Maritza
Maritza Ejenbaum is a licensed clinical social worker with 36 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and the fallout from trauma. She works in North Carolina and offers therapy in both English and Spanish. Maritza focuses on practical changes that make daily life easier and more manageable.
Her approach is direct and compassionate. She teaches skills for coping with anxiety and mood struggles. She also helps people who are dealing with addictive behaviors or who want to rebuild confidence after difficult experiences.
Background and approach
Maritza pays attention to how early life and attachment shape current reactions and relationships. She often explores how past events affect choices and feelings today. That work helps people reduce shame, increase self-worth, and make different decisions moving forward.
She believes therapy should fit the person, not the other way around. Sessions are collaborative, with respect and clear feedback. Maritza aims to earn trust and to help clients feel heard while learning tools they can use between sessions.
In practice she combines relationship-focused and skills-based methods to meet real-life needs. That might mean looking at emotional patterns in close relationships, practicing strategies to change unhelpful thoughts, or building new habits to handle stress. Her goal is to help people gain more control over their lives and move toward the changes they want to make.

How Maritza’s Approaches Work Online
Maritza blends attachment-focused work with client-centered and cognitive behavioral ideas to help people change patterns that cause pain. Attachment-based work looks at how early bonds shape current relationship reactions and helps people build healthier emotional connections. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, respect, and collaboration so the person feels understood and can guide the pace of work. Cognitive behavioral work teaches concrete strategies to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood.Finding the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. Maritza will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and life situation, and together they decide which approaches to try. She adapts sessions over time based on what is helping and what needs change.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls let people work face-to-face from wherever they are. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be a good option for check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief check-ins, homework discussion, or support between longer sessions. These options offer flexibility for different schedules and needs while keeping the focus on practical steps and real-world progress.
