(She/Her)
About Me
i there, my name is Marissa Barcelos (she/her) and I have been providing counseling services for the past eleven years for children, teens, adults, and families. I have school based counseling experience, and love working with teens as they process big feelings, learn coping skills, navigate social media, relationships, and decreasing self-harm. I also love to work with adults with complex trauma histories and utilize EMDR as well as somatic/IFS therapy.
Education & Experience
I am almost EMDR certified and I am trained in Perinatal and Postpartum Mental Health. I love to work with new parents and I have a heart for working with parents who are struggling with perinatal and postpartum symptoms (anxiety/depression), adoption, and fertility issues. I have extensive experience with supporting parents with symptoms of trauma from having a child stay in the NICU, birth trauma, as well as grief with miscarriage. I understand the combination of fear and joy of parenthood, the “what do I do now?”, and the struggle of navigating through your new role and identity.
