About Marisol

Marisol Vigil is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in California with three years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, self-esteem issues, career concerns, and big life changes. She offers sessions in English and Spanish and provides weekend and late evening appointment times for greater flexibility.

Marisol believes the client knows their life best. She works in a way that centers the person's goals and strengths. In sessions she listens closely, asks practical questions, and helps people try new ways of coping when old patterns get in the way.

Her approach blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral and mindfulness techniques. That means she helps clients notice unhelpful thoughts and test small changes, while also building present-moment skills to reduce overwhelm. Emotionally-focused ideas guide conversations about how feelings show up and affect close relationships.

Marisol has experience addressing concerns that often accompany health and caregiving stress, including chronic pain, illness, and disability. She also supports people dealing with attachment and abandonment worries, communication problems, guilt and shame, and the fallout of separation or divorce.

She aims to make therapy practical and down to earth. People can expect clear, manageable steps between sessions and a focus on what helps in day-to-day life. To set up a first appointment, follow the site's Start Therapy flow and complete the matching questionnaire.

How Marisol’s Approaches Translate to Online Support

Marisol uses client-centered work to keep the conversation focused on each person's goals and priorities. This approach emphasizes listening, respect, and helping people clarify what matters most in their lives. It often benefits those facing life transitions or parenting stress.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thought patterns and try small behavior changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood, and improving day-to-day coping. Mindfulness techniques are woven into sessions to teach simple practices for reducing overwhelm and staying present during stressful moments.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. She works with clients to decide which methods fit their needs and goals, and adjustments are made as therapy progresses. This is a collaborative effort where the client’s feedback guides each step.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since specific formats were not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to attend appointments around work, caregiving, or medical routines. It can also allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, reduce travel time, and help fit therapy into a busy schedule. Ask about current session options when you schedule to find what works best for you.
