About Marissa

Marissa Namirr is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) working with people in Georgia. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, depression, parenting, and life changes. Marissa aims to make the first step easier by offering steady support and a listening presence.

She creates a calm space where clients can talk through feelings without fear of judgment. Sessions emphasize practical steps and clearer thinking when emotions feel overwhelming. Marissa uses straightforward tools to help people manage mood, cope with life transitions, and rebuild motivation.

Over 22 years of practice, Marissa has helped people facing grief from separation, struggles around attachment and abandonment, issues with infidelity and jealousy, caregiver stress, and blended family challenges. She also addresses control issues, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose and midlife concerns.

Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, using exercises that link thoughts, feelings, and actions. Clients can expect to work on specific habits and try small experiments between sessions. Marissa balances skill-building with time to reflect on family of origin patterns and personal history when that feels useful.

Marissa provides teletherapy for Georgia residents during weekday hours. She helps people set realistic goals and track progress in ways that fit everyday life. To start, clients follow a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session based on her availability.

Using CBT and Online Sessions to Tackle Difficult Patterns

Marissa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in ways that are easy to understand. CBT helps people spot links between their thoughts, emotions, and actions. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, stress, and relationship worries because it focuses on changing patterns that keep problems going.

She pairs CBT exercises with clear, actionable steps. That might include trying a new behavior between sessions or testing a different thought and noting what changes. These small experiments help people see what works and adjust over time.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Marissa works with each person to pick methods that match their goals and day-to-day life. She will check in about what helps and change course if needed so the work fits practical needs and personal preferences.
