Welcome, my name is Mirissa Jackson, Licensed Certified Social Work- Clinical. I am the owner of Relief with Rissa, LLC. I am currently 100% remote. I have seven years of experience as a clinical therapist. I am eager to engage black women in the process of healing institutional, generational, and systematic trauma. In session with me, I allow my clients to take off the mask, the suit, the uniform and be themselves. You will have an opportunity to explore change and address issues that are most important to you. Together we will develop a realistic plan for change that makes sense. My experience stems from a variety of settings including substance use rehabilitation centers, residentials centers, prison settings and military base facilities. My intervention includes specific treatment modalities such as, but not limited to Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Strengths-Based, Brainspotting and Cognitive Processing Therapy. My approach to therapy is simple; I am committed to the mental health, emotional well-being and general wellness of black women. This understanding coupled with my formal training and life experience arms me with the unique ability to meet you where you are on your mental health journey and help navigate you toward your desired goals.
