CBT Therapy in New York

I am a 40 year old native of central/upstate NY- right outside of Rochester. I am a mom to a 3.5 year old daughter which is where my time and energy is spent outside of being a Therapist. I mostly enjoy traveling, watching documentaries, cooking/baking, and learning about German culture. I find myself very easy-going, down to earth and have a huge passion for helping others!

I specialize in working with adults navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship or intimacy concerns, grief, trauma, and the pressure to “have it all together” while feeling anything but. Therapy with me is a place to be fully yourself, without judgment. I offer a compassionate, supportive space where vulnerability is honored and your voice is heard. Together, we’ll explore the patterns and beliefs that may be holding you back and help you reconnect with your values, strength, clarity, and sense of possibility.

Hi, I’m Marisa Markowitz, LCSW, CASAC. I’m a warm, collaborative, and goal-focused therapist who believes real change happens when you feel supported, understood, and empowered. I work with adults navigating anxiety, stress, high expectations, life transitions, and the desire to create more balance and ease. My approach is grounded in evidence-based modalities—CBT, DBT, EMDR, MI, and narrative therapy—always tailored to your unique strengths and pace. In our sessions, you can expect a grounded, compassionate space where we identify clear goals, build practical tools, and create momentum toward the life you want. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed or simply ready for growth, I’m here to help you move forward with confidence and clarity. Let’s get started when you’re ready.

I am a driven and creative individual. I am a psychotherapist and a professional cellist. Having two careers side by side gives me a unique perspective and ability to connect with people in the therapy setting. I am a problem solver and I enjoy doing so in a collaborative manner. I try to foster a space where constant learning and growth is happening. I especially love being a safe person and providing a safe environment for people to practice new skills with. I believe that if I'm going to teach something new to someone that it's best if I am practiced at it as well. I enjoy trying things together and am not afraid to think on my feet and be spontaneous in sessions. To me therapy should be like taking vitamins; a regular part of your health routine. Even therapists go to therapy (at least they should!).

I am a Licensed, New York–based psychotherapist who provides a warm, safe, and growth-oriented environment for you to engage in meaningful self-exploration. Together, we’ll look closely at the struggles that may be holding you back, understand the patterns influencing your well-being, and create space for healing. Through this collaborative process, you’ll have the opportunity to reconnect with your best, most authentic self and build a stronger foundation for lasting personal growth.

My goal is to make therapy feel welcoming and supportive, so it’s less intimidating than people often expect. I help people manage anxiety and build back their self-confidence. Together, we’ll figure out what helps you handle stress and feel more in control. By working together, you’ll better understand yourself, decide what changes you want, and make a plan to reach your goals. It’s normal to feel unsure or nervous about starting therapy and sharing personal things. In my practice, we go at a comfortable pace and always respect your boundaries.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) providing individual and couples therapy for adults who want to better understand themselves and their relationships. My work is rooted in the belief that lasting change begins with awareness—of our thoughts, emotional patterns, and the ways we relate to ourselves and others. I work with individuals who struggle with self-criticism, doubt, emotional disconnection, and a persistent sense that they are never doing “enough.” Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside but feel internally overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from their sense of worth. Through therapy, they learn to recognize unhelpful patterns of self-talk, develop greater emotional clarity, and build a more compassionate and grounded relationship with themselves. I also work with couples who feel caught in cycles of conflict, distance, or misunderstanding. Rather than focusing only on the content of arguments, I help couples understand the emotional dynamics and attachment patterns driving their interactions. By reducing judgment and increasing awareness, partners are able to communicate more effectively, rebuild trust, and reconnect in more meaningful ways. My approach is collaborative, insight-oriented, and client-centered. I integrate elements of cognitive-behavioral and attachment-based work to help clients understand the “why” behind their reactions and practice new ways of responding. Therapy with me is not about quick fixes or assigning blame, but about creating space for clarity, understanding, and intentional change. Clients often report feeling calmer, more self-aware, and better equipped to navigate relationships and life challenges. My goal is to help people feel more grounded in themselves, more connected in their relationships, and more confident moving forward.
