“My depression and anxiety decreased by using this type of therapy. The thought of connecting with the different parts of myself and using the gift of the Holy Spirit to bring healing was frightening at first, but it worked. While it was not a fast process, it was one that brought healing, comfort, and relief. Martiza is an empathetic and caring therapist. It is clear that she is skilled at what she does.”

“My life was profoundly changed in my time as a client working with Maritza. I came to therapy in a place of being disconnected from my needs, my emotions, and my own sense of myself. Maritza helped me gently, "little by little" reconnect to the parts of me that needed attention, care and healing. The shortest summary I can give is that it feels like I found my way back home to myself.

Maritza is an expertly trained therapist and a sincerely compassionate, authentic human. My “untrusting parts” could see that I was working with someone who professionally really knew what they were doing and also truly cared about me as a person. I felt so safe learning from Maritza and journeying to my inner world with her guidance. If you are a client pursuing therapy support or a therapist looking for a beautiful model of how to do this work well, I really can't recommend any other person with more confidence. She is an amazing gift to the therapy field and the clients that find their way to her practice.”

“Between the demands of business, family, and modern society, I needed relief from, what felt like, an internal war. I knew I needed to try therapy again. This time, I looked for a therapist of color who had solid training, a genuine desire to help, and the confidence to go deep. Finding Maritza Erazo has been life-changing.

Maritza's insight and guidance through the IFS model gave me a deep understanding of the source of my internal conflicts and the motivations behind my behaviors. I used to believe that aha- moments came after years of therapy, but I had them during each session. "Maritza, you are magical" is a phrase I would say these breakthroughs.

I now feel more openness, creativity, compassion, and awareness of when I'm operating from my true self. Martiza has shown me how to access my own magic and given me tools I'll use for the rest of my life."

“When I started with Maritza, I was a few months into the start of my divorce. I was falling further into what I can only describe as a dark pit. Without my family, I did not know who I was or even if the things I liked were because I truly liked them or because she liked them.

Maritza was not only able to help me out of that pit, but climb even higher than I have ever been in my life. I am at a point now where I love myself and believe that I deserve so much more from life. The journey that Maritza guided me through was with compassion, professionalism and even some tough love. She is an amazing person that I am truly blessed to have worked with.”

"Maritza invited me to sit with all the parts of myself, and practice caring for them, rather than them ruling over me. She has a gift for slowing down, not rushing through those critical moments in therapy when you are almost at a breakthrough, but you could miss it if someone wasn’t there to say, “let’s pause and stay with that for a moment.” Maritza is that person, and her work honors your past, present, future, and the deepest longings of your soul.“
