Hello there!

My name is Marisa and I am a licensed mental health counselor with over 6 years of experience providing mental health services to individuals from widely diverse backgrounds, with varying symptoms and diagnoses. Throughout the past couple of years, I have been predominately working with women (adults and teens) who experience anxiety, trauma/PTSD, mood disorders, and interpersonal and intrapersonal challenges. While many of the clients I support have experienced trauma, particularly in some form of abuse, I am equipped to work with clients with a wide range of additional concerns, as well.

I have a passion for working with the LGBT+, ENM/Polyamorous, minority, and Kink communities. I am proficient in helping with issues related to trauma. I especially love to help empower the oppressed and the people who are made to feel "less than."

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


If you've been living with constant worry, panic attacks, or the lingering effects of difficult experiences, you may feel exhausted from always being on alert. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, disconnected from themselves, or stuck in patterns they no longer want to repeat. You don't have to continue carrying it all on your own.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I work with children, adolescents, adults, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, panic disorders, family stress, and life transitions. My goal is to provide a warm, supportive space where you feel safe, understood, and empowered. Together, we'll explore the experiences and patterns contributing to your struggles while building practical tools that help you feel more grounded, confident, and capable in everyday life.
