Feeling stuck, alone, and wondering if you will ever feel good enough? Lately you find that you are comparing yourself to others all the time and you feel disconnected from the accomplished, empathetic, and heart driven woman that others see you as. You notice patterns of the past continue to come back to haunt you and you're exhausted trying to break free from the cycle of self-doubt and anxiety that holds you hostage. Life feels especially heavy lately, and it’s getting hard to hold it all together. It’s common to struggle with self-confidence and not seeing the true light you have to offer, but it doesn’t have to be this way. You deserve to know true self-acceptance. Knowing you’re worth, feeling a sense of true connection, and getting back to what lights you up is not out of your reach. You’re ready to stop making yourself small to fit other’s needs and heal the past that’s holding you back from the joyful and balanced life you want. I can help you get there. I work with women from a mind-body-spirit approach to encourage deep exploration of the real unapologetic you that’s waiting to take the drivers seat. Through my work in nature and online sessions, I assist clients to identify their own unique strengths that help us navigate change and access true happiness.

Marissa is an experienced and skilled therapist with extensive clinical training and deep dedication to this work and her clients. Anyone seeking to heal through experiential, somatic, and/or nature-based approaches will be in such good hands with Marissa. As a colleague who has participated in advanced clinical trainings with her, I can verify that she is an incredible therapist with wonderful instincts and a huge heart.
Marissa is warm, compassionate, and incredible at creating a space for people to reconnect with themselves and heal from things they’ve felt resigned to. She is extremely well-educated and well-known for her trauma work and I would trust her with any referral.
I know Marissa to be an exceptionally talented and kind therapist who has helped many with her specialities in IFS, wilderness therapy, and EMDR. I highly recommend her.
