About Marissa
Marissa Tcharie is a licensed clinical social worker who supports people coping with anxiety, stress, depression, and relationship strain. She practices in New York and offers straightforward, compassionate care for those who feel stuck or overwhelmed. Marissa aims to help clients find clearer direction and stronger emotional footing.
She focuses on social anxiety, isolation, communication problems, and low self-esteem. Sessions often include talking through painful emotions like guilt and shame, and identifying small shifts that can ease daily life.
Background and approach
Marissa also helps people explore life purpose, forgiveness, and building self-love over time. Her style is warm and direct. She creates a calm space for honest conversation and practical problem solving.
Rather than using jargon, she helps clients notice patterns and try new ways of responding to stress and relationships. Marissa brings five years of clinical experience as an LCSW to her practice. She blends evidence-based therapeutic techniques with attention to each person’s values and background.
This combination guides how she tailors sessions to individual needs. People who come to her typically want help reducing anxiety, repairing how they relate to others, or finding more meaning in daily life. Marissa works alongside clients as they practice new skills and make steady, manageable changes.
Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care
Marissa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and emotional understanding. One approach centers on helping people identify anxious thoughts and gently test them with new behaviors to reduce avoidance and worry. This helps with generalized anxiety and social anxiety by offering concrete steps to face feared situations.Another common focus is building communication and relationship skills. Sessions coach people in how to express needs, set boundaries, and repair misunderstandings, which can ease tension with others and reduce isolation.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Marissa works collaboratively with each person to choose methods that match their goals, values, and daily life. She checks in regularly and adjusts techniques as progress is made or priorities change.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Video is useful for a full conversation and visual cues, phone calls can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and messaging formats allow for brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to work on anxiety, communication, and self-esteem from wherever the client is in New York.
