Getting to know Marisol Tejeda Alvarado

Hi there, I'm Marisol! My name is Marisol Alvarado, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) specializing in addictions with over 10 years of experience, based in Southern California. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from California State University, Northridge. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you can express your thoughts and feelings at your own pace. I believe in a collaborative, non-judgmental approach to therapy, tailoring each session to your unique needs and goals. My approach I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Solution-Focused Therapy. I help clients identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns, build motivation for change, and develop practical solutions to move forward. Together, we work collaboratively to create meaningful and lasting progress. My focus I specialize in working with adolescents and adults struggling with habits or patterns that no longer serve them, such as difficulty with motivation or substance use, navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, and mental health concerns like anxiety, depression, and stress. I focus on empowering clients to build resilience, develop self-awareness, and achieve their personal and emotional goals. My communication style My style is warm, empathetic, and collaborative. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients feel comfortable sharing their thoughts and experiences. I believe in honest, open dialogue, providing feedback and guidance that is compassionate yet direct. By fostering trust and clarity, I aim to empower clients to take meaningful steps toward their goals. My goals for you I approach goal setting collaboratively, ensuring goals reflect your values, needs, and vision for your future. Together, we identify clear, achievable objectives and break them into manageable steps. Using CBT, MI, and Solution-Focused Therapy techniques, we work toward your success.
