About Marisol
Marisol Vigil is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on practical tools parents can use when stress and anxiety build up. She brings three years of clinical experience and works in English and Spanish to make conversations easier for diverse clients. Marisol centers sessions on the person in front of her.
She starts by listening to what matters most and then helps people try small, manageable changes. Sessions often include straightforward exercises to lower anxiety, build confidence, and improve daily routines.
Background and approach
She uses techniques from several well-known approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with more useful ones. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the conversation focused on each person’s goals.
Mindfulness practices are added to improve focus and calm in stressful moments. Marisol commonly addresses parenting concerns alongside stress and self-esteem issues. She also supports people dealing with career changes, relationship troubles, grief, and the practical strain of caregiving or chronic illness.
Her work includes communication problems, attachment concerns, and rebuilding trust after separation. Sessions are offered by phone, video, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy schedules. She offers evening and weekend times, with weekday 3:00 pm slots set for phone sessions.
To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step connect a person to therapy.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an open, nonjudgmental conversation where the client guides the goals and pace. It is useful for people who need space to tell their story and decide what they want to change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on connecting thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses simple exercises to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and practice new behaviors, which can help with anxiety, stress, and confidence struggles.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan together based on what helps most. Clients often try a mix of approaches until they find what fits their needs and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy lives. Video lets people read facial cues and practice new conversation skills. Phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone wants a voice conversation. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, or when writing helps organize thoughts. These options give flexibility to fit therapy into evenings, weekends, or quick breaks during the day.
