Marisa Nieves
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina, Virginia, and Florida. We are faced with so many obstacles in life that we never expected. Sometimes it is difficult navigating different stages in our life. We have challenges within our relationships or we are being pulled in so many different directions, we don't know where to start. Then there are those moments that are so heavy and we are exhausted from carrying the burden all on our own. This can make us feel lost and overwhelmed. My approach to therapy is centered around you and your needs. I am here to help you navigate those unexpected obstacles.

I am trained in EMDR, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing.
It's a structured approach that utilizes bilateral stimulation to process some traumas (big or small) that are stuck. I also include foundations of cognitive behavioral therapy to address anxiety, depression, and trauma. I incorporate a solution-focused approach to situations that are not heavy as others.
I have experience working with all ages and multiple settings. At this time, I offer individual virtual sessions for adolescents and adults.
My goal is to provide a safe and comfortable environment for my clients to process all of life's obstacles. Our life is composed of countless puzzle pieces. My role is to help you sort out those pieces so you can continue to create your unique puzzle.

"Living a joyful life, I’ve found, is not about trying to avoid the unavoidable. Joy comes from
summoning a strong life force to overcome problems, from the smallest irritation to the biggest disaster."
-Tina Turner

"I don't think we have any alternative other than remaining optimistic. Optimism is an absolute necessity, even if it's only optimism of the will."
