Florida Board Qualified Supervisor for MFT & MHC

Maria Ayala, LMFT

Experience the profound growth and transformation that supervision can bring to you and your clinical work.

Supervision is more than a requirement for licensure; It’s an investment you make in yourself and the therapist you’re becoming.

Supervision With Me

My Approach

I have a reflective, self-of-the-therapist approach to supervision. Rooted in a psychodynamic model, I invite you to explore transferences, parallel processes, relational reflections, and the use of self, all unfolding within a foundation of safety and trust.

My Focus

Beyond supporting you in developing strong skills in ethical decision-making, documentation, and clinical approaches, my true focus is on deepening and expanding your self-insight and self-awareness so you can learn how to bring your self into your work, shape your therapeutic identity, and deepen your clinical practice.

My Goals for You

I hope to help you move beyond the comfort of theories and techniques to fully embrace the profound impact of bringing your authentic self into the therapeutic space, recognizing and embracing your presence as the most valuable gift in the room.
