About Marimar

Marimar Rosa Monge is a licensed clinical social worker who has spent the last 10 years helping people manage emotional struggles. She practices in California and works with adults facing issues such as depression, anxiety, stress, and family conflict. She speaks English and Spanish and carries those language options into sessions.

Her style is practical and calm. She focuses on clear steps people can try between sessions. Conversations often include skill-building, plain reflection, and short-term goals so progress feels visible and manageable.

Background and approach: Marimar uses a mix of well-known therapies to shape treatment. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Mindfulness are among the tools she draws from. She also uses Motivational Interviewing and Narrative Therapy to help clients clarify values and rewrite unhelpful stories they tell about themselves.

She often helps people dealing with life changes, chronic illness or pain, postpartum depression, isolation, and issues tied to shame or guilt. Work might include learning new coping skills, practicing emotional regulation, and improving communication with important people in life.

Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. Marimar aims to create a respectful space where people can talk honestly, test new behaviors, and notice small changes. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes.

How proven approaches translate to online sessions

Marimar uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT often involves setting small, practical homework tasks and testing new ways of thinking to reduce symptoms like low mood and anxiety.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer interpersonal communication. These skills are useful when intense emotions or relationship conflict get in the way of daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marimar will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, values, and comfort level. That may mean trying a skill-focused plan for a few sessions or using narrative techniques to reframe life stories over time.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce commute time. Talk with the therapist about what will best fit your routine and goals.
