Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Maria Concepcion. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
Maria is amazing :)
Been only two sessions already and so far so good! We like Maria and we’ll definitely continue therapy with her.
We only had one session so far but I think my wife and I already feel the difference. Though we obviously still have a lot of ways to go.
Maria is a great therapist who is not afraid to tell you the truth in love. She was able to help us deeply reflect on our behavior in the relationship towards each other and help build the communication gap we soo deeply needed.
My husband and I have been working with Maria Concepcion for a few months now.
Both of us were feeling pretty worn down by many years of poor communication, anger and resentment. The pandemic forced us into more time together and ended up being the right time to face long standing problems that we previously thought may be insurmountable.
Maria put us both at ease. We both felt safe expressing our "sides" of our story. She has an uncanny ability to get to the heart of matters, and bring them to light in a way that allows you to look at your own and your partner's behavior more objectively. She is very observant and doesn't miss much and manages to circle back or bring attention to issues without it feeling judgemental. She was encouraging and helped us to feel hopeful even before we really dug into the "work".
Maria is very active about helping you build real skills in communication as well as recognizing patterns of behavior and responses that we all face. She provides reading material and assessment tools which are very helpful and she maintains an interest in between sessions by checking in about your "homework" and encouraging you to keep in touch. We would highly recommend Maria for couples therapy. We
both feel it has significantly affected our lives for the better.
Very well experienced and great at helping folks grow in a godly way!
