About Marisol
Marisol Garza is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 11 years of clinical work. She focuses on practical help for stress, anxiety, depression, anger, and problems with self-esteem and motivation. Her style is straightforward and caring, aimed at people who want tools they can use day to day.
Marisol favors a person-centered way of working that keeps the client's goals at the center of each session. She blends cognitive behavioral ideas with dialectical behavior strategies and solution-focused techniques.
Background and approach
That mix helps people change unhelpful thoughts, manage strong emotions, and build clear steps toward goals. Sessions are tailored to the person rather than a fixed protocol. Expect an interactive session where the therapist listens closely, asks questions to clarify what matters most, and suggests small, practical skills to try between meetings.
Marisol also brings mindfulness and motivational interviewing tools when they fit the situation. She has experience supporting people through grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and family issues, compassion fatigue, and work-related distress including first responder concerns. Other areas she works with include body image, codependency, control and communication problems, and recovery from domestic violence.
Marisol conducts therapy in English and practices in Texas. Her approach suits people who want respectful, goal-focused sessions with clear, usable strategies for coping and change.

How Marisol’s Approaches Work Online
Marisol uses client-centered work to put a person’s goals at the center of each session. This approach means the conversation and the plan change to fit what matters most to the client, whether the focus is anger, grief, or life transitions.She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, anger, and self-esteem by offering clear exercises and experiments to try between sessions.
The therapist will treat finding the right approach as a shared process. She will talk with each person about their needs and preferences, try methods that seem to fit, and adjust the plan based on what works best. This collaborative stance helps tailor techniques like mindfulness, DBT skills, or motivational interviewing to the individual.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between meetings.
