About Marisol
Her work is person-centered and collaborative. She blends approaches such as cognitive behavioral techniques and dialectical behavior ideas to tackle unhelpful thoughts, emotion regulation, and everyday coping skills. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are also used to support motivation and present-moment awareness.
Marisol helps people set clear, achievable goals and tailors sessions to meet those objectives. She addresses concerns like trauma and grief, relationship and family problems, compassion fatigue, and issues around body image and self-worth. Practical strategies and short-term tools are taught alongside deeper therapeutic work when needed.
Clients can expect a direct but empathetic style that focuses on what they want to change. Conversation, skill-building, and guided reflection are common parts of sessions. Progress is checked regularly and plans are adjusted based on client feedback.
She works with a broad range of concerns including anger, career stress, bipolar-related challenges, and symptoms following disaster or violence. Marisol encourages people who feel overwhelmed or stuck to consider a conversation about what would help them most.
How Marisol’s Approaches Work Online
Marisol uses client-centered techniques and cognitive behavioral therapy to help people change unhelpful thoughts and build new coping habits. Client-centered work emphasizes listening and adapting to each person's needs so the therapist follows the client's pace and priorities. Cognitive behavioral therapy breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches specific skills to shift those patterns.She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy ideas to teach emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills. Those DBT-based tools are useful when emotions feel intense or when someone wants concrete coping steps to use in daily life. Together these approaches offer both short-term skills and longer conversations about values and goals.
Finding the right mix is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust plans based on what helps. This means clients help shape which methods are used and how sessions proceed.
