Therapists in Conway, AR

Deciding to seek help is a vulnerable decision, but shows strength. Sometimes outside support and guidance is just what we need to journey through what we’re facing. If you are constantly feeling overwhelmed by stress or health concerns, are a self-labeled “over-thinker,” have personal traumas weighing you down, or are experiencing a crisis of faith, I may be just the therapist for you!

Marissa has an interpersonal approach to therapy that is true to who she is. She’s direct, helps you explore difficult and uncomfortable places, and cares about your soul. You matter to her and she works hard to be different from any other relationship you’ve had. It’s often the story (like Marissa’s) that life isn’t what it was thought to be. She welcomes all who sit on her couch, no matter what he or she has or is going through. Some of Marissa’s favorite moments in therapy are when client’s discover exceptions to the rules that they probably didn’t even know they had.

Do you find yourself feeling overwhelmed and alone? Maybe the unknowns of these challenging times have brought on anxious feelings. On top of that, personal circumstances can leave us with mountains of stress and shame that are too tall to climb alone.

Life can hit hard. Stress and heartache can build over time or it can explode instantly into one big mess. Most of the time you can get through ok on your own but sometimes it's just too much to keep going solo.

Sometimes you need a friendly ear to help you figure out what happened and how to get out of the mess without feeling judged or looked down on. Someone who can help you feel like you again: happy, hopeful, confident, empowered!
