About Mariel
LCSW in California and Florida with 18 years of experience, Mariel Diaz helps people address stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, family conflict, and career questions. She works from several clinical approaches including Attachment-Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy. Mariel practices in Florida and uses her background to guide conversations and practical steps clients can try between sessions.
Mariel focuses on clear, actionable work. She talks through how attachment patterns show up in relationships and how that affects communication. She uses CBT to identify unhelpful thinking and DBT skills to manage strong emotions. Mindfulness techniques are offered to improve attention and calm, and psychodynamic ideas help trace repeated patterns back to earlier experiences.
Sessions involve setting small, reachable goals and checking progress together. Mariel helps people recognize control issues, improve workplace interactions, and work toward stronger self-regard. She also supports exploration of life purpose and recovery after traumatic events.
The therapist adapts the pace to each person, balancing practical tools with reflective discussion. Conversations often include skill practice, real-life homework, and reviewing what changed over time. The emphasis is on useful steps that fit day-to-day life.
Mariel conducts work in English and holds LCSW credentials in California and Florida. People considering starting are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and book an initial session to see how the approach fits.

Remote work using attachment, CBT, and DBT
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people notice how attachment styles affect trust and closeness in relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and offers practical steps to change them. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and identifying unhelpful thinking. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills to manage intense emotions and improve interpersonal effectiveness. It is useful when strong feelings or conflict make daily life harder.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to weigh needs, goals, and preferences. Together they try methods, review what helps, and adjust the plan over time so it fits the client's situation.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Many people find remote sessions make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins, and reduce travel time. Discuss format preferences when you complete the matching questionnaire so the therapist can recommend ways of working that fit day-to-day life.
