About Marissa
Marissa Myers is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Louisiana with three years of clinical experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, and struggles with self-esteem. She also supports people coping with life changes, grief, addiction, ADHD, bipolar concerns, career stress, and compassion fatigue.
Her style is practical and straightforward. In an initial session she asks about strengths, challenges, and what the person wants to change. Sessions focus on clear goals and steps that can be practiced between meetings. She uses everyday language and collaborative planning rather than clinical jargon.
Marissa draws on several therapeutic methods including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Mindfulness approaches. Those tools are used to address patterns of thinking and behavior, emotional regulation, and relationship patterns. She pays attention to how past family of origin issues and attachment experiences affect current relationships.
People can expect a mix of talking, skills practice, and problem-solving. Work often includes building coping skills for anxiety, managing mood shifts, addressing substance use patterns, and improving communication. Caregiver stress, codependency, abandonment, and adoption or foster care issues are also included in her focus.
Marissa asks clients to help shape the plan for treatment so it fits their life and goals. She notes that what works can change over time, and sessions are adjusted as progress is made.
BHow sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Marissa uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as part of her work. ACT focuses on identifying values and taking committed steps toward them while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. CBT looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence mood and teaches strategies to change unhelpful patterns.She also draws from Attachment-Based Therapy, which looks at how early relationship experiences shape current patterns. That approach can help when people face repeated relationship or trust issues and want clearer ways to connect and set boundaries.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss your goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past, then recommend methods to try. Clients are invited to give feedback so the plan can be adjusted if a method does not feel helpful.
Practical benefits of online sessions should be confirmed before booking because session formats are not specified here. Ask which formats are currently offered so you can pick what fits your schedule. Many people choose online options to fit therapy into work breaks, manage childcare needs, reduce travel time, or use shorter check-ins when they need a brief focused session.
