About Mariah Frias

Hi, I'm Mariah Frias, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) passionate about helping people navigate life's challenges with compassion and understanding. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, trauma, or tough life changes, I'm here to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your feelings and start healing.

I believe that every person has the strength to grow and overcome the obstacles they face, and my approach is all about meeting you where you're at. I work with teens, young adults, and families, and I tailor my approach to your unique needs, always fostering an open and collaborative environment.

I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and trauma-focused techniques to help clients build resilience and develop practical coping skills. I'm especially passionate about culturally sensitive care, racial identity issues, body positivity, and supporting first responders.
