• Individualized Therapy • Immigration Evaluations • In-Person Women’s Groups
• Compassionate, Culturally-Affirming Care for Your Unique Journey •
I’m Dr. Marissa Vasquez, a licensed clinical psychologist serving the Monterey Peninsula and virtually across California. I offer individualized therapy for adults managing anxiety, identity shifts, grief, and relationship challenges—with a focus on cultural humility, compassion, and authenticity. Every person’s story is unique, so I tailor my approach to meet your specific needs and honor your intersecting identities.
Additionally, I provide thorough immigration psychological evaluations, conducting detailed clinical assessments and comprehensive reports to support asylum, visas, and other legal processes—always with sensitivity to your background and experiences.
I also facilitate in-person group therapy for women, creating a supportive, affirming space to connect, share, and grow together. Together, we’ll explore your story and build a path toward meaningful, personalized change.
