Hello, I'm Marisa I am here to help you heal, accept, prosper, and lay down any burdens that have kept you feeling stuck. I provide a safe space for authenticity, vulnerability, and alliance as we have all experienced times of feeling misunderstood, lost, and alone. As a social worker, I take a holistic approach, considering your physical, psychological, and social well-being to best personalize what you need in our sessions. I specialize in developmental and relational trauma, grief and loss, and self-exploration. Trauma and grief change our patterns of thinking, and views of ourselves and the world around us. Together, we can develop psychological flexibility, alter behaviors that are holding you back, and implement security back into your life. I have predominately worked with transitional-aged youth, adults, and older adults with a wide spectrum of difficulties and hardships. I'm here to hear your story, support your goals, and help you uncover the "unseen" barriers that stand in your way. I utilize trauma-informed approaches and behavioral techniques to help you master skills, edit unhelpful narratives, and feel empowered to navigate life's inevitable stressors. I use a mind/body approach so that we can uncover root causes, learn greater nervous system regulation, and create healthy lifestyle habits to achieve the sustainable equilibrium you are searching for. Whether you are dealing with unprocessed loss and trauma, emotional disturbances, interpersonal challenges, or self-doubt, I'm here to collaborate with you to find peace and purpose. In our sessions, I will integrate mindfulness, psychoeducation, skill-building, curiosity, and compassion. Let's work together to redefine the parts of yourself that no longer serve you and create a meaningful life based on your values. If you are interested in pursuing an intake appointment when booking appointments, please book at the top of the hour. Grow has not implemented a function to do this and booking in the middle of the hour (9:30, 10:30, etc.) creates time conflicts. Thank you :)
