I work with teens and adults who feel emotionally overwhelmed, stuck in self-doubt, or unsure how to communicate their needs effectively. My style is warm, collaborative, and direct, and I integrate evidence-based approaches such as CBT, DBT-informed skills, and attachment-focused therapy to help clients build emotional regulation, confidence, and healthier relationships. I aim to create a supportive space where clients feel understood, encouraged, and equipped to make meaningful changes in their lives.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In your first session, we will take time to get to know one another and discuss what brought you to therapy, your current concerns, and what you hope to gain from our work together. I will ask thoughtful questions to understand your experiences, relationships, and goals, while also making space for you to share at your own pace. You can expect a supportive, nonjudgmental environment, along with initial guidance and next steps to help you feel grounded and clear about the therapeutic process moving forward.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I bring a culturally responsive, client-centered approach to therapy, combining evidence-based methods with flexibility to meet your unique needs. I focus on empowering individuals, couples, and families to build confidence, increase self-awareness, and create healthier patterns in their relationships and daily life. By blending relational insight, practical strategies, and genuine care, I strive to make therapy a safe, supportive space where meaningful growth and lasting change are possible.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

My clients are adults, teens, and couples who are ready to transform the way they think, feel, and connect—with themselves and with others—so they can experience life more fully. I work especially well with self-starters, the “strong friend” who supports everyone else, and those navigating complicated or on-again/off-again relationships, situation-ships, loneliness, depression, or anxiety. I also support parents and caregivers who want to strengthen their parenting skills, deepen their understanding of their children and young adults, and cultivate more harmonious family dynamics.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I use CBT to help clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. My goal is to equip clients with practical tools to manage emotions, solve problems, and create positive, lasting change.

Attachment-based

I use Attachment-Based Therapy to help clients understand relationship patterns, build trust, and create healthier connections with themselves and others. My goal is to guide individuals, couples, and families toward greater self-awareness, emotional security, and more fulfilling relationships.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

I use DBT to help clients manage intense emotions, cope with stress, and build healthier relationships. Through practical skills and supportive guidance, I help clients create lasting changes in how they think, feel, and respond.

Couples Counseling

I use couples therapy to help couples improve communication, resolve conflicts, and deepen emotional connection. My approach focuses on identifying patterns that create tension, fostering understanding and empathy, and teaching practical strategies to strengthen the relationship. By combining evidence-based techniques with a supportive, collaborative environment, I guide couples toward healthier interactions, stronger intimacy, and shared goals for a more fulfilling partnership.

Person-centered (Rogerian)

I use Person-Centered Therapy to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. My approach emphasizes empathy, genuine understanding, and unconditional positive regard, helping clients build self-awareness, self-acceptance, and confidence to make meaningful changes in their lives. By fostering a collaborative therapeutic relationship, I guide clients toward personal growth and more fulfilling connections with themselves and others.

I enjoyed speaking with Marirhetta. She is down to earth and authentic. I appreciate how she gave me some quick solutions to consider even in our first session and helped me ground some of my expectations of what normal looks like. She was able to use some of her own experience as a connection which helped me feel understood. I look forward to our next meeting.
