Hi, I’m Marisa. I bring over 20 years of experience in the social services field, working with individuals from diverse backgrounds and with a wide range of mental health concerns. I believe that feeling truly seen and understood is at the heart of effective therapy, and I strive to create a space where you feel safe, supported, and respected. My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and gently structured. I meet you where you are and offer guidance and practical tools to help make the therapeutic process feel less overwhelming and more manageable. I aim to provide a nonjudgmental environment where you can speak openly, explore your experiences, and move at a pace that feels right for you. Life can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re carrying things on your own. Therapy offers a supportive space to gain insight, build resilience, and learn healthier ways to cope with stress and life’s demands. I value connection and walk alongside you with care, compassion, and understanding. I would be honored to support you on your journey. If I do not accept your insurance plan or am not in-network, I’m happy to provide a superbill you can submit for out-of-network benefits. My goal is to make accessing care as easy and supportive as possible for you.
