About Marisol
Marisol Cruz is a bilingual counselor who works in English and Spanish. She holds LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) and LCPC (Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor) credentials and has five years of practice as a mental health counselor. She spent many years as a school counselor before moving into clinical work. Marisol focuses on clear, practical steps to help people feel steadier in daily life.
Her sessions center on what the client needs right now. Conversations begin with whatever is most pressing, then narrow to a specific goal for the session. She uses straightforward strategies to address stress, anxiety, self-esteem, depression, relationship strain, and addictive behaviors. Sessions aim to be empathetic and nonjudgmental.
She draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to examine thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Mindfulness practices are used to build calm and attention in the moment. Motivational Interviewing helps when making changes feels hard or overwhelming.
Marisol also supports people dealing with parenting and family stress, career questions, and life transitions. She pays attention to attachment concerns, guilt and shame, and communication problems that affect daily functioning. Her approach tends to be practical, focused, and collaborative.
Clients can expect a clinician who asks about goals, tracks progress, and adjusts plans as needed. Marisol brings a background in school counseling that informs how she talks about growth and development across life stages. She welcomes conversations in Spanish or English and works with people who want concrete tools for coping and change.
