About Marissa

Marissa Namirr is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia with 22 years of clinical experience.

Background and approach

She focuses on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, coping with life changes, addiction, trauma and abuse, parenting, and career challenges, along with related issues like attachment and abandonment, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, and midlife concerns. Her approach emphasizes practical, evidence-informed strategies to help clients manage symptoms and build daily skills.

Namirr creates a nonjudgmental space where clients can explore feelings and patterns that affect their wellbeing. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and develop healthier responses, while also addressing relational and emotional themes such as guilt, shame, forgiveness, infidelity, and isolation.

Sessions aim to be collaborative and solution-oriented, supporting clients as they take steps toward clearer goals and improved functioning. Available for teletherapy with Georgia residents, she offers weekday morning appointments and supports a range of life transitions and mood concerns with a steady, compassionate therapeutic presence.

Using CBT and Online Options to Manage Life Challenges



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical approach that helps identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. It is often used to address anxiety, depression, stress, low self-esteem, and coping with life transitions by teaching concrete skills for managing thoughts and emotions.

Marissa approaches therapy as a collaborative process, working with clients to choose methods that fit their needs and goals. Together they explore which techniques feel most useful and adjust the plan over time so treatment aligns with changing priorities and progress.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to access care from home. These formats provide flexibility for scheduling and allow ongoing work between sessions through messaging when appropriate, supporting continuity of care for Georgia residents.
