01About Mariel
Mariel Sanchez is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and relationship and family concerns. She focuses on practical steps clients can use right away. Her tone is direct and warm, and she aims to make therapy feel understandable and doable for everyday life.
Mariel uses clear, goal-oriented work to help people reduce worry and handle life changes. She often combines talking through patterns with concrete strategies to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Background and approach
Sessions are grounded in what the client wants to change next, not in long technical explanations. Her background includes three years of clinical experience working with common life challenges such as separation, blended family issues, caregiving stress, and immigration-related concerns. She also helps people facing attachment wounds, codependency, body image struggles, and trouble with communication or control.
Mariel draws on client-centered methods that place the person's experience first, along with cognitive behavioral tools to spot thinking patterns. She brings mindfulness and existential perspectives when work on meaning, values, or present-moment awareness is useful. Motivational interviewing is used to support small, sustainable change.
Outside of clinical work she enjoys movies, reading, and a good slice of pizza. That everydayness shows up in sessions - practical, human, and focused on steps people can try between meetings.

04Online support
Practical approaches for online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely to the person in front of the therapist and following their concerns. It helps when someone needs a supportive space to make sense of feelings and decide what matters most.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It offers simple tools to test unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood.
Mindfulness methods bring attention to the present moment through brief exercises and awareness practices. These techniques can help reduce reactivity and make daily stressors easier to notice and respond to rather than react to automatically.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and the problems they want to solve. This is an ongoing conversation rather than a one-time decision.
Online formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone can be lower bandwidth, live chat offers quick check-ins, and messaging supports short updates between sessions. These options help people keep continuity with therapy, try different ways of communicating, and use methods that suit their day-to-day routine.
