About
Maria Rheba
Rheba values collaborating with clients in the therapeutic process to cultivate a client focused experience founded in empathy, rapport, and emotional safety. Her philosophy is that clients are the experts of their own lives. She utilizes strategies that are values based, solutions oriented, and emphasizes strengthening an individual's sense of self in relationships with others. Rheba approaches clinical work by facilitating a client's awareness of their strengths and unique value as a human being.
Outside the office, Rheba is a pet parent of two German Shepherd mixes and three rescued sibling cats. Her main hobby is improving her German language skills hoping to read Jung's writings in their original language. She has the most fun being a Polyglot and exploring other cultures and cuisines through travel, festivals, and international films on Netflix.
