Marimar Rosa Monge, LCSW

Marimar Rosa Monge is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in California with ten years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, self-esteem concerns, family difficulties, and coping with life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.

She focuses on clear, practical support rather than vague promises. Marimar helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and test new behaviors. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral work and mindfulness to reduce reactivity and improve day-to-day functioning.

Her approach is collaborative and straightforward. She listens, identifies patterns that keep problems active, and helps build small, manageable steps toward change. Therapy can include skills practice, short experiments between sessions, and ways to handle intense emotions without escalation.

Marimar also draws on dialectical behavior ideas and motivational interviewing to support change when people feel stuck or driven by strong impulses. Narrative techniques are used to make sense of painful experiences and shift personal stories that fuel shame or isolation.

People seeking help for anger often get concrete strategies to notice triggers, interrupt impulsive reactions, and repair relationships afterward. She supports those facing chronic health issues, postpartum depression, grief, and communication problems, always aiming for practical moves that fit everyday life.
