Welcome! I applaud you for taking the first step in your journey to healing, self-discovery, and growth.Together we can work towards a life of growth and healing.

I am Marisol Nieves, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I received my Master of Social Work at the University of Illinois- Chicago where my concentration focused on Children and Family mental health.  I am a Latinx therapist, bilingual in Spanish and English. I have over 7 years of experience working with children, teens, adults, and families. My clinical experiences range from intensive mental health outpatient programs, non-profit organizations, field-based community mental health and hospital settings.

My areas of expertise include anxiety, depression, childhood trauma resolution,  stress management, self-image, coping with chronic illness, racial and cultural identity challenges for minorities including LGBTQ clients. I especially enjoy working with first generation young adults to help them process their generational trauma, identity development, and manage relationships and hardships. In my practice, I utilize a trans-theoretical approach that is client centered and focuses on the individual person in their environment. Some of the treatment modalities implemented in my practice include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, and Dialectical BehavioralTherapy (DBT). While I bring my psychotherapy training to my clients, I believe my clients are the ultimate experts of their life and honor their autonomy. Please feel free to reach out for an initial consultation to explore the possibilities of getting you to a refreshed YOU!
