Hi there, I'm Marissa!

I’m an LCSW and a warm, supportive therapist who helps women who are used to carrying a lot for others find clarity, emotional balance, and relief from overwhelm. My approach blends CBT, Humanistic, and Compassion Focused Therapy to help you understand yourself, regulate emotions, and reconnect with who you are beneath the pressure.

My focus

I specialize in supporting women, helping professionals, and caretakers navigate anxiety, stress, life transitions, and emotional overload. Many of my clients are used to being the dependable one and are learning how to care for themselves with the same intention they give others.

My approach

My approach is grounded, insight-oriented, and compassionate. I use CBT to help reframe unhelpful thoughts, Humanistic Therapy to support identity and self-awareness, and Compassion Focused Therapy to reduce self-criticism and strengthen emotional regulation. We create a steady, supportive space where you can slow down, feel safe, and grow.
