I've been blessed to have wonderful professional positions throughout my career (see roderickhaferphd.com). Most recently I was Vice-Chair of the Psychiatry Department at the University of Wisconsin. I enjoy working with all client presentations and believe that the "connection" with those I treat is critical to therapy success. I think a 15 to 30 minute free consultation would be the best approach to determine "our fit" in working together.

As a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with a Master’s in Social Work and a Master’s in Physical Education, I have dedicated my life to the holistic understanding and treatment of trauma, healing, and personal growth. My journey has been shaped by my service as a veteran of Operation Iraqi Freedom and a former police officer, experiences that have ingrained in me a deep sense of duty to serve my country, community, and my fellow human beings. These roles have provided me with unique insights into the complexities of the human experience—insights that inform my approach to therapy, where I strive to create a transformative space for healing. My approach to therapy is much more than traditional talk therapy; it’s about engaging on multiple levels—physical, emotional, and psychological. I work to educate, nurture, and guide individuals as they navigate the depths of their trauma and rediscover their inherent strength. I believe that true healing requires more than just surface-level conversations, and that’s why I encourage a collaborative partnership with my clients. Together, we delve deeply into their experiences, with a focus on understanding the root causes of their struggles and developing strategies for lasting change. I bring a sense of curiosity and excitement to every session, believing that therapy is not only a process of healing but also one of discovery. My direct yet compassionate style helps foster a safe space where clients can explore their challenges without judgment, knowing they are supported by someone who has walked through many of life’s most difficult terrains. I push for productive, meaningful sessions that move beyond superficial fixes to truly unravel the patterns and behaviors that hold people back.

As a licensed Psychologist, I first prioritize learning not only why a person is contacting me, but also to be able to relate to that person based on their individual needs and what are their expectations of therapy. I believe that we all need to have a sense of purpose or meaningfulness in our lives, something that our thoughts, emotions and life experiences contribute to the "heart" of our personalities. The process of healing from the challenges of life begins with a search for truth about our beliefs, habits and relationships. Physical health is affected by our mental health through the complex interactions between the brain and bodily functions. Interventions I use in my sessions include Cognitive Therapy, CBT, DBT and ACT. As a Psychologist, I have worked in private practice, long term care, and forensic and psychiatric hospitals. Even though these patient populations are diverse, the common denominator is the human "heart". My sessions work to connect a person's sense of meaning in life to help them overcome anxiety, depression and a loss of personal identity in this complex world.

With 8 years of experience, I specialize in helping individuals overcome family, relationship, and career stress, as well as burnout. My goal is to empower you to become the best version of yourself.I use a variety of therapeutic techniques tailored to each client’s unique needs. Some of the key approaches I incorporate are: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps you identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors. Mindfulness-Based Therapy: Encourages you to focus on the present moment and develop a non-judgmental awareness of your thoughts and feelings. Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT): Focuses on finding solutions and setting achievable goals. Person-Centered Therapy: Emphasizes empathy, unconditional positive regard, and active listening to support you in your growth. Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT): Helps you understand and transform your emotional responses, particularly in relationships. Psychoeducation: Provides you with information and resources to better understand your mental health and coping strategies. These techniques allow me to address a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship challenges.

Hi! My name is Marisa and I am an LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor), residing in Massachusetts. I received my Master's degree in Counseling Psychology in 2018. I have been practicing in the mental health/human services field in a variety of settings: outpatient, crisis stabilization unit, residential and have experience working with adults dealing with a wide range of mental health and substance abuse disorders. My focus is person-centered and to create a compassionate, inclusive, and trauma-informed space to allow individuals to fully express themselves. My perspective is that each person is the author of their own story and therapy provides support in maneuvering this. You are the expert of yourself. I have experience supporting individuals dealing with life stressors, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and borderline personality disorder. My style is more eclectic, using a combination of interventions including CBT and DBT. I utilize humor as a way to create common ground with the client and relate through the human condition.

I love my profession! I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (independently licensed in FL and MA) for over 25 years with experience working with adults and adolescents, both female and male, inspiring hope while working together to develop essential life skills and healthy coping tools. I take a strength-based approach as I believe everyone can grow and change. The hardest and most important step is reaching out and asking for help, so you are on your way to a better place in your life. Do you find that you tend to dwell on the past and things you can’t change? Do you worry about the future, the what if’s and things you cannot predict? Do you find that you are so busy in life, maybe taking care of others, putting their needs ahead of your own or you forget or don’t feel you have time to take care of yourself? That’s where I can help. I specialize in treatment for depression, anxiety, PTSD, psychosocial stressors/major life changes, self-esteem building, social skills, trauma and grief. I am very knowledgeable about mental health diagnosis' however I concentrate less on the actual diagnosis because a mental illness does not define who you are. I am here to help guide you to a happy and healthy place in your life.

"When you make peace with yourself, you make peace with the world" As adults, we are responsible for changing things not because we are to blame for these things, but because we are the only ones who CAN change them. That can feel unfair, and it is. But it can also be empowering- you are the catalyst for personal change, you can always take a turn or step in a different direction, you can always act differently, feel differently, and (with the right tools and assistance) heal. I am here to help you with this noble work. As a mental health professional, I am passionate about helping others feel more whole, hopeful and effective by developing deeper self-knowledge, self-respect, compassion, resilience and coping skills.

I am a licensed clinical social worker, advocate, mother, runner, and yoga enthusiast. I believe that everyone would benefit from talk therapy because life is challenging, complicated, and busy. I fully understand that getting ourselves to therapy is, at times, not easy and sincerely appreciate every client that intentionally decides that they are ready to grow, heal, and evolve. I believe in the power of becoming comfortable with being uncomfortable so as to push ourselves to step outside of our comfort zones.

Hello – I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and have several years’ experience working with individuals navigating severe and persistent mental illness in their adult years. I have several certifications and trainings completed specific to mood and thought disorders as well as within perinatal/maternal mental health. With my professional experience so far, I believe that I offer a wide variety of perspectives and insights that can be utilized to help meet diverse needs and goals, while continuing to learn and grow as a clinician with each client that I meet. I will provide support and encouragement as we work together to achieve your uniquely desired goals. In any unexpected challenge or life change, we can feel any number of complicated emotions or a confusing mix of emotions. My goal is not to push away or avoid these painful feelings but rather to validate, support and navigate these emotional experiences. I hope to support you in acknowledging your thoughts and feelings and how they relate to your experiences. Through this we can find ways for you to cope that you feel are genuine. We all deserve someone in our corner, someone to be our unbiased sounding board, to challenge us and to provide a space to air out our thoughts- let’s do this together.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Massachusetts rather than a city like Boston?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Massachusetts from Springfield to Cape Cod! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Massachusetts.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on Self Esteem?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need. For example, your selected specialty, Self Esteem, is filtering therapists in Massachusetts that work with patients with similar concerns.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
