About Marissa
Marissa Myers is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with three years of experience based in Louisiana. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and family concerns, addiction, grief, and ADHD among other issues. Marissa speaks English and uses practical, structured methods to help clients notice patterns that keep problems going and try different ways of responding.
Marissa begins by asking about strengths, daily challenges, and what the person wants to change. Early sessions focus on clear, achievable goals and small experiments to test new behaviors. She uses cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thoughts and routines, and she includes ACT and mindfulness ideas when they fit the work.
Her style is collaborative and direct. Sessions involve talking through real situations, trying short exercises, and practicing new skills between meetings. She also pays attention to attachment and family of origin issues when those patterns affect current relationships or mood.
Marissa helps people navigate life transitions, work-related stress, compassion fatigue, and challenges tied to adoption, caregiving, or abandonment experiences. For concerns involving addiction, dissociation, or mood instability such as bipolar or DMDD, she focuses on stabilizing routines and practical coping strategies.
Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. Costs vary with location and sessions are provided through a subscription that can be canceled at any time. International clients are not currently accepted.
How CBT, ACT, and Attachment Work Online
Marissa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors in daily life. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions so small changes can be practiced and measured. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used to clarify values and build willingness to accept difficult feelings while pursuing meaningful actions. ACT often helps when avoidance keeps someone stuck. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people recognize repeating dynamics in relationships and try different ways of connecting.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. She will check goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what feels useful. Clients and therapist decide together which tools to keep using and which to change as progress is made.
The therapist's profile does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online work useful because it can fit into a break at work, remove travel time, or make it easier to schedule regular sessions. Online sessions can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require video when that is more practical. Ask about format options when you complete the matching questionnaire so sessions match your daily life and goals.
