About Marisa
Marisa Chiuchiolo is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with five years of professional experience. She works with people who are coping with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family concerns, low self-esteem, and depression. Marisa communicates in English and Spanish.
She aims to keep conversations straightforward and focused on what matters to the client. In sessions she addresses practical problems such as communication breakdowns, feeling isolated or stuck, difficulties with attachment or abandonment worries, and everyday stress linked to caregiving, money, or health challenges. She also supports people facing guilt, shame, or choices around separation and divorce.
Marisa adapts the way she talks and plans work based on each person’s situation. That means discussing small, achievable steps and looking at how thoughts and actions connect to feelings. She helps people notice patterns that get in the way and then try different approaches to reduce anxiety and improve relationships.
Her background includes helping clients manage motivation and confidence, work through midlife concerns, and cope with chronic illness or disability-related stress. Sessions often focus on clearer communication, setting boundaries, and practical problem-solving. Marisa invites clients to set goals and checks in on progress along the way.
People who prefer Spanish are welcome to request sessions in that language. International clients can be seen, and Marisa emphasizes straightforward conversation, regular check-ins, and plans that fit daily life.
How evidence-based work translates to online sessions
Marisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and building new skills. One common approach she applies helps people notice and reframe anxious thoughts, which can reduce avoidance and make social situations easier to face. Another approach emphasizes behavioral experiments and small, planned exposures to test fears and build confidence through repeated practice.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Marisa will talk with each client about goals, try approaches that match those goals, and adjust the plan based on what is helping. That collaborative process makes it easier to pick strategies that fit a person's everyday life and comfort level.
Confirm the available session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make scheduling simpler and help fit therapy into a busy day. People often find it easier to keep appointments without travel, join from a quieter spot with less background noise, or choose shorter check-ins when time is tight. Marisa will discuss how to structure sessions so they suit the client's routine and needs.
