About Marisa
Marisa DiCamillo is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with four years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, and depression. She also focuses on attachment issues, self-love, and social anxiety and phobia.
Marisa uses clear, practical methods to help people notice patterns that keep them stuck. Sessions often include learning coping strategies, practicing emotional awareness, and trying small behavior changes between meetings. She keeps explanations straightforward and checks in about what is and isn’t working.
Her style is collaborative. She listens for how past relationships and attachment habits shape current reactions. Then she helps people test different ways of responding in everyday situations, such as social events or difficult conversations.
For someone who finds speaking up or meeting new people hard, Marisa focuses on small, manageable steps. Those steps can include role-play, breathing and grounding techniques, and planning short exposures to feared situations. The aim is practical skills people can use right away.
She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adjusts tools to fit each person’s goals. New clients complete an intake where priorities and early goals are set together. That first planning session helps keep work focused and measurable.
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Marisa draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful patterns and building practical skills. One common approach helps people identify and test thoughts that increase anxiety, then practice more balanced responses in real situations. This can reduce the intensity of anxious reactions over time and make social tasks feel more manageable.Another approach centers on attachment-related patterns. It looks at how early relationship experiences shape current expectations and reactions, and then practices alternative ways of connecting and setting boundaries. These practices often include exercises that can be done between sessions to track progress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marisa will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, comfort level, and everyday demands. She reviews what’s working and makes changes together so the plan stays practical and relevant.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make scheduling easier and help sessions fit into busy days. It can also support shorter check-ins, sessions that don’t require video, or appointment times that line up with breaks at work. Ask about the specific formats available when you start the matching process.
