About Marisol
Marisol Scarpati uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage anxiety, depression, trauma, and low self-esteem. She is a licensed mental health counselor, LMHC, practicing in Florida and offers services in both English and Spanish. She aims to create a calm space where people can talk about what’s weighing on them and start building better ways to cope.
She brings 20 years of clinical experience to each session. That experience shapes how she listens, asks questions, and helps clients find practical steps forward.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on real problems such as panic attacks, social anxiety, anger, and feeling isolated. Marisol works with everyday concerns like communication problems, control issues, guilt and shame, and difficulties with forgiveness. She helps people explore self-love and rebuild confidence after painful experiences.
The work tends to be straightforward and goal-oriented, with attention to cultural background and personal history. Therapy sessions may include talking through painful memories, learning calming and coping skills, and practicing new ways to respond in relationships. The emphasis is on tools that people can use between sessions to reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning.
Marisol offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules. New clients begin by completing an online matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on therapist availability.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online care
Two evidence-based techniques often used are trauma-informed skills and anxiety-focused coping strategies. Trauma-informed work helps people understand how past hurts affect current reactions and teaches grounding and pacing to manage strong emotions. Anxiety-focused strategies include breathing and exposure-style practice to reduce panic attacks and social anxiety symptoms over time.Another common strand is work on self-esteem and interpersonal skills. This involves identifying negative self-talk, practicing self-compassion, and rehearsing clearer communication in everyday situations. These methods help with guilt, shame, control issues, and improving relationships by giving concrete skills to use outside sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. That collaborative process may include trying different techniques and adjusting the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for this style of work. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for skills practice and emotional support. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for brief check-ins. Live chat and text messaging are useful for short updates, coping reminders, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options make it easier to keep regular contact and continue practice between sessions.
