Hiya! My name is Marissa Glass I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Texas. I received my Masters in Social Work from UT Arlington. I have been practicing in mental health for the last 4 yrs. I have experiencing working with individuals in a one-on-one therapy setting and in crisis mental health assessments. I work with clients on understanding themselves and the world around them in a way that makes sense for them.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In the first session you can expect us to take most of the time getting to know each other, understand your history, understanding what methods I use and just generally seeing if we are a supportive match.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

As a provider, I am very good at helping my clients feel empowered and able to speak up for themselves. I never shy away from feedback from my clients or the word "no". I am a strong supporter of advocating for yourself and the care you want.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT is focused on challenging and reframing thoughts that you have about yourself. I use this type of intervention to help my clients build self esteem and learn more about themselves.

Grief Therapy

Grief is tricky and I know that it is a complicated experience to go through. I practice validation and normalizing all of the emotions that come up when grieving.

Trauma Informed Care

I understand that trauma is out of our control and takes the power away from us making it hard to express yourself or communicate what you are needing. I let me clients always take the driver seat in sessions and control the pace or content we cover.

Gender-affirming therapy

Come as who you are, I will accept and honor your experience and the challenges/success that have come along.

Motivational Interviewing

It's easy to focus on all the things that need to be "fixed" in therapy, but I think it's important to remember where you have succeeded and where you have improved too; so you can remember that you can do hard things.
