About

Marissa's passion is to assist individuals with mental health, behavior, and special needs, dating to her adolescent years. There was a lack of resources and professional expertise for individuals who suffered from special needs in the environment she was raised in. Marissa was determined to research, educate herself, gain experience, and advocate for those who needed it most.

She's been servicing children and adolescents for 9 years through mentorship, intensive therapy, assessment, and building behavior plans for growth and success. She credits her parents and family for playing a vital role in her upbringing and who she is today. Her goal is to help parents navigate challenging behaviors their child might be displaying by educating and equipping them with the proper tools and resources for success.
