Working with Marisa makes me feel like I'm untangling a huge knot. Each new day with her I feel the knot loosen more and more until its finally unraveled, giving me a sense of accomplishment, understanding and satisfaction. She is very knowledgeable and is able to share and explain that knowledge in many fun and interesting ways. She's quirky and always replies with exclamation marks. She has helped me more than she'll ever know and I truly appreciate her. Thank you Marisa!

More about Marisa
- 5 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
Hello, my name is Marisa and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) for the state of North Carolina. I have over 5 years working with individuals and families. I have experience working with children as a play therapist, in home therapy for adolescents and their families, and individual therapy with adults. I also have experience in case management and helping others navigate various systems to address their needs. My experience ranges between ages 2-60+.
My approach is to allow my clients to express all their concerns while I help them put all the puzzles pieces together. I believe in building a strong therapeutic rapport and I strive to be as creative as possible with assisting my clients and encourage them to achieve all goals.
There are many life challenges that we all face. You are taking a big step by allowing me to help you overcome all obstacles. I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Marisa is a great listener and is wonderful at breaking down ideas.
I've only had one session, and it was mostly spent going over my initial intake information, since I'd not sent it correctly. I don't have much to base a review on yet, but I did feel like Marisa was easy to talk with and helped me specify why I was seeking therapy and what I wanted to get out of it.
Marisa is very thoughtful and is excellent at listening and responding in a timely manner. She pushes her clients to make good decisions for their mental health, no matter what. All and all, a very good counselor!
So far so good! Thank you for your continued help!!
Have only had two sessions. I like her style and listening skills
The best understanding counselor I have ever been acquainted with
Awesome
