About Marisol

Marisol Vigil is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in California who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, self-esteem, career concerns, and the everyday strains of parenting. She frames clients as the experts on their own lives and aims to support their next steps toward change. Short, practical conversations are central to her style.

She uses client-centered methods to listen and reflect what matters most to each person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tools are brought in when thoughts and behaviors are getting in the way. Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas help people name and shift painful emotional patterns that keep them stuck.

Marisol has three years of professional experience and draws on that background to offer hands-on strategies. She helps people cope with life changes, career uncertainty, and relationship stressors such as commitment, communication, and attachment concerns. She also addresses issues like abandonment, guilt and shame, and challenges related to chronic illness or caregiving.

Sessions include practical skill-building, coaching around small steps, and time for clients to process feelings. She offers weekend and late evening appointments, and notes that her 3:00 pm weekday slot is phone only. People may request Spanish or English sessions.

Marisol encourages a collaborative pace. She helps people set short-term goals and checks progress each week. The focus is on useful change, not on labels or complicated theory.

How her approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead, helping people feel heard and understood as they decide what to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches simple tools to shift unhelpful patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps name and work with emotions that keep people repeating the same painful relationship or personal patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Marisol works together with each person to choose methods that match their goals and daily life. She checks in about what is helpful and adjusts the focus over time so sessions stay relevant and practical.

Confirm current session options before booking because specific formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare, or caregiving duties and can reduce travel time. Phone-only appointments are noted for the 3:00 pm weekday slot, while evening and weekend times may suit people looking for appointments outside typical work hours. Licensed professionals can use different formats to help clients continue steady progress without major schedule changes.
