About Maritza
Maritza Ejenbaum is a licensed clinical social worker with 36 years of practice. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, and relationship concerns. She is licensed as an LCSW in North Carolina and Florida and offers services in English and Spanish.
She helps people learn skills to manage stress so stress stops driving daily life. She teaches practical tools for coping with anxiety and depression. She also supports work around trauma and abuse and helps people regain a sense of control after difficult experiences.
Background and approach
Her approach draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy, attachment-based ideas, and client-centered ways of working. Maritza also uses cognitive behavioral techniques and existential thinking when those methods fit a person’s needs. She adapts how she works to match each person’s style and goals rather than using one fixed method.
Sessions focus on building trust, understanding how early experiences shape current behavior, and strengthening self-esteem. She emphasizes collaboration - the person and therapist set goals together and decide what helps most. Maritza aims to make therapy a respectful, compassionate space where people can take real steps forward.
She has spent decades working with diverse cultural and sexual orientation backgrounds, and with a wide range of life stages and concerns. People interested in Spanish language sessions can work in Spanish. Practical formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches that adapt well to online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify and shift unhelpful emotional patterns and respond differently in relationships. It is useful for people who want to understand strong emotions and change how they connect with others.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current behavior and feelings. It helps people recognize repeated patterns and build more supported ways of relating to themselves and others.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person’s own goals and pace. The therapist offers empathy and support while helping clients find their own solutions to problems and decisions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose or blend methods based on goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. That plan can change as progress is made.
Online sessions let people fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when bandwidth or camera use is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and flexible around work, family, and travel.
