Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support



Marizol uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, empathetic space where the client's perspective guides the work. This approach focuses on understanding the person's experience and building a collaborative relationship to support growth and self-awareness. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is also a key part of her work; CBT helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical skills to change behaviors and reduce symptoms such as anxiety and low mood. Mindfulness therapy complements these methods by teaching attention and acceptance practices that can reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Marizol works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best align with their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress is made. This collaborative stance helps ensure treatment remains relevant and effective for each person.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for busy schedules and those who prefer remote care. These formats make it easier to access consistent support from licensed professionals and to continue therapy through life transitions or when in-person visits are not practical.
