Marisol Nunez, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Marisol!

I work with individuals using different therapeutic approaches, always grounding my work in a person-centered foundation. I believe every person can fulfill their potential and deserves support in reaching it.

My focus

I work with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, relationship problems, abuse, parenting challenges, grief, and trauma.

My approach

I use humanistic and person-centered therapy, selecting the right therapeutic model to help you reach your goals. The therapeutic relationship is key—there needs to be trust and respect. My goal is for you to feel comfortable, understood, and free from judgment.

My communication style

I strive to create a comfortable environment and remain flexible to meet your unique needs. I understand everyone is different, so I adapt my approach to what works best for you.

My journey to mental healthcare

Growing up with immigrant parents who struggled to make ends meet, I witnessed the impact of limited emotional support. I wanted to break cycles of violence and create a better environment, which led me to study psychology and understand why people behave differently.

My goals for you

I ask you to share what you want to accomplish, then we define those goals together. Throughout therapy, we work collaboratively to help you reach them.

Our first session

I start by introducing myself and asking about your therapy experience. I want you to feel at ease, so I focus on your thoughts and feelings about therapy and learn about your experiences.
