Background and approach
Compassion fatigue is another area she addresses, especially for those feeling worn down by caregiving or demanding roles. Sessions aim to identify strengths and build practical steps forward. Marisol pays attention to how early relationships and attachment patterns affect current struggles.
She also supports people facing issues like abandonment, isolation, family of origin questions, and communication problems. Concerns about body image, guilt, shame, and control show up often in her work and are addressed with straightforward conversation and problem-solving. Immigration-related stress, multicultural concerns, and fertility or first responder stress are also among the topics she sees.
Her approach is grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques and tailored coaching tools that fit each person's goals. She uses plain language and clear steps so people know what to expect. Starting therapy with Marisol means working with someone who centers your strengths and helps you map attainable changes.
She encourages small, realistic shifts that reduce anxiety and increase a sense of agency.
Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care
Marisol uses proven, evidence-based techniques to help people manage anxiety and rebuild day-to-day functioning. One common method focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing them with real-world experiments to reduce worry and avoidance. This approach helps people notice small changes that lower anxiety over time.She also uses a skills-based approach that teaches practical coping tools for stress, grief, and compassion fatigue. Techniques include paced problem-solving, behavioral activation to increase meaningful activity, and grounding strategies to manage intense feelings. These tools are taught in simple steps and practiced between sessions.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Marisol works with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, lifestyle, and comfort level. She checks in regularly to adjust techniques so they remain useful and realistic for everyday life.
Online therapy with Marisol is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules. Video works well for conversational work and skills practice, while phone sessions can be an easier option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging suit quick check-ins, short coaching notes, or stepped support between sessions. These options make it easier to maintain momentum and fit therapy into work, family, or travel routines.
