About Marizol
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with 7 years of experience, Marizol Urbieta-Cortez helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, low self-esteem, and life changes. She works with those trying to build motivation, improve communication, and regain confidence. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.
Marizol uses conversational, problem-focused work to help people sort immediate concerns. She commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and on Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term goals. Mindfulness techniques are used to steady attention and reduce anxiety in the moment.
Her style emphasizes listening and adapting the session to what each person brings that day. Motivational Interviewing is part of how she helps people clarify what they want and take practical steps toward it. Therapy sessions typically involve talking through recent events, practicing new ways of thinking, and trying small behavioral experiments between meetings.
Marizol addresses issues such as communication problems, isolation and loneliness, feelings of emptiness, and questions about life purpose. She also works with people navigating effects of domestic violence, forgiveness, self-love, women's concerns, and challenges common in young adulthood. The approach balances short-term problem solving with attention to underlying patterns.
Fees vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. International clients are not accepted at this time.

How her approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the client. In practice this means sessions emphasize the client's concerns and personal goals, and the therapist adapts questions and reflections to those priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. CBT sessions typically include reviewing recent situations, testing thoughts, and planning small experiments between sessions to change reactions and routines.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then try methods that fit the client's needs. This collaborative process makes it easier to adjust techniques as the work progresses.
Session format options are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session formats before booking. Online sessions can help fit therapy into a busy week by removing travel and allowing meetings during breaks or evenings. They also make it easier to follow up regularly and to practice skills in day-to-day settings without needing to rearrange major commitments.
