About Maria Dally

Maria Dally is a licensed social worker in Michigan who focuses on helping people navigate complex emotions and life challenges. She holds an LMSW - Licensed Master Social Worker - and completed her Master of Social Work at Western Michigan University. With four years of experience working with individuals and families in community mental health, she brings practical skills gained from both virtual and in-person settings to her therapeutic work.

Her approach emphasizes resilience, self-compassion, and developing effective coping strategies for concerns such as anxiety, trauma, depression, and major life transitions. She has particular experience supporting parents and the broader family system and has training in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy for young children and adolescents. Maria centers care on each person’s unique story, working collaboratively to build healthier habits, process past experiences, and strengthen self-worth.

Outside of her clinical work she enjoys everyday comforts and creative pastimes - she loves cats despite being allergic, cares for plants, admires turtles, and favors anything pink. In her free time she crochets, assembles puzzles, cooks, takes scenic walks, and spends time with loved ones. Her practice is grounded in culturally responsive, compassionate care aimed at meaningful growth and emotional wellbeing.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Maria integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy into her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify personal values and learn practical skills to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking actions that align with what matters most - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of relating born from early bonds and helps people improve connection, communication, and emotional regulation within relationships, which can be especially helpful for parenting, family concerns, and trauma-related attachment issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Maria collaborates with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies as the work unfolds and inviting client feedback along the way.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility by allowing sessions through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and access licensed professionals from different locations. The range of formats supports varying communication styles and makes ongoing care more manageable for many people.
