Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
When working with individuals struggling with eating disorders, I recognize that recovery often requires a multidisciplinary team approach to address the complex and multifaceted nature of their challenges. In therapy, I integrate a variety of techniques, including psychodynamic therapy to explore underlying emotional issues and unresolved conflicts that may contribute to the disorder. I also use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and change unhealthy thought patterns and behaviors related to food and body image. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is another key tool that I employ to assist clients in developing emotional regulation and coping skills. My goal is to empower individuals by helping them reclaim their lives, offering them hope and practical strategies for recovery. By combining these evidence-based approaches within a supportive framework, I strive to provide clients with the tools they need to step into recovery with confidence and resilience.
29 Years Experience
Online in Chattanooga, TN Tennessee
Chattanooga has undergone a remarkable urban transformation over the past two decades — from a polluted post-industrial city to a nationally recognized model of revitalization anchored by the Tennessee Aquarium, a thriving outdoor economy, and a world-class broadband infrastructure — and its therapy community reflects a city coming into its own, with growing demand from young professionals, creatives, and outdoor enthusiasts relocating from other metros. The city has significant African American communities in North Chattanooga and other historically Black neighborhoods, and therapists offering culturally affirming care and racial identity work are an important part of the local landscape. CHI Memorial Hospital and Erlanger Health System provide institutional mental health resources alongside a growing private practice community. Chattanooga's outdoor recreation culture — anchored by Lookout Mountain, the Tennessee River Gorge, and proximity to Appalachian trails — shapes a therapy community with distinct interest in the intersection of nature, physical health, and mental wellbeing.
