About

Hi! I am Marissa Wright, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with six years of clinical experience working in both addictions and mental health counseling. I have worked with adults of all ages in both individual and group counseling settings and would be honored to work with you throughout your journey of self-exploration and self-improvement. Using a person-centered, strengths-based approach, I aim to use my professional skills to help you achieve your therapeutic goals. My counseling style is pretty laid back overall. I believe in treating all clients with respect and cultivating a safe space free of judgments. I have been described by former clients as being warm, calming, patient, and empathetic, and I will always do my best to make you feel at ease. My therapeutic approach combines a variety of modalities including Cognitive-Behavioral, Solution-Focused, Client-Centered, and Rational-Emotive Therapy techniques. I believe in working collaboratively with you to determine which interventions will work most effectively to meet your unique and specific needs. One size does not fit all when it comes to counseling, which is why I find collaboration with you throughout the therapeutic process to be essential. It is important to me that you find this experience to be nothing short of beneficial. It takes undeniable strength and courage to take the steps to make changes in your life and I commend you for taking the first step. If you’re ready to take another, I am here for guidance and support. I look forward to working with you!
