Meet Maria Wiggins

You’ve already survived the worst of it. I’m here to help your nervous system finally feel like it.

I help adults in Central Texas—especially trauma survivors, military-connected families, and driven professionals—move beyond chronic stress, anxiety, and survival mode.

You’re not broken. You’re responding normally to what you’ve been through. Using EMDR intensives, sandtray therapy, and holistic support, I help your body stop reliving what your mind already knows is over - so you can finally feel safe, grounded, and free.
