About Marissa
Marissa Cox is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in North Carolina with seven years of clinical experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, low self-esteem, ADHD, relationship and family concerns, career stress, and life changes.
Her approach is practical and interactive. Sessions focus on clear goals and concrete strategies that fit day-to-day life. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and to build new habits that lessen symptoms.
Marissa works with people on communication problems, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, and social anxiety. She also supports conversations about life purpose, self-love, and coaching-style guidance when clients want structured steps toward change. Sessions typically involve talking through current difficulties and trying small experiments between meetings.
She emphasizes respect and sensitivity during sessions and avoids stigmatizing labels. The work is collaborative - the clinician and client decide what to focus on and which techniques to try. Progress is tracked with practical tasks and regular check-ins.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Payment uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Confirm current session options before booking to match scheduling needs.
BHow sessions work
How Cognitive Behavioral Work Transfers to Online Sessions
CBT focuses on noticing thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, then testing new ways of thinking and acting. In practice this looks like setting specific goals, trying short experiments between sessions, and reviewing results together. CBT is often used for anxiety, stress, social anxiety, and low self-esteem because it targets the patterns that fuel those concerns.When applying CBT online, sessions still center on structured conversations and homework tasks. The therapist and client review what’s working and make adjustments. Figuring out which techniques to use is a collaborative process based on your goals, daily routines, and what you prefer to try first.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people use approaches like CBT from wherever they are, while the therapist helps translate exercises into real-life steps that fit your schedule.
