About

Marissa Boscia-Wittekind, LMHC, is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who views therapy as a collaborative process focused on making steady progress toward each client’s goals. She encourages clients to speak openly about what they need so sessions can feel productive and supportive, and she brings the same honesty to the work in order to strengthen the therapeutic relationship.

Her style is eclectic and strength-based, drawing from approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside emotional regulation and relaxation techniques. Marissa is known for a warm, engaging presence and a practical, solution-focused mindset. She works from the belief that each person is the expert on their own life, arriving with a distinct set of needs, values, and strengths. In that context, her role is to help clients feel empowered, recognize their potential, and move past patterns that have kept them feeling stuck.

Marissa’s priority is to offer a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can feel supported while exploring challenges and experiences. The first session is typically centered on building rapport, getting to know what brings the client to therapy, discussing relevant history and background, and beginning to clarify initial goals for the work ahead.

Therapy Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care

Marissa Boscia-Wittekind, LMHC, uses approaches that can be clear, practical, and supportive in an online setting. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a respectful, collaborative relationship where clients can talk openly and feel understood. It can be especially helpful when someone wants space to sort through stress, relationship concerns, grief, or life transitions at their own pace.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured approach that looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It often includes learning skills to respond differently to unhelpful patterns, which can be useful for concerns like anxiety, depression, or coping with daily stress. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes strengths and workable next steps, helping clients identify what is already working and build on it in a goal-oriented way.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Marissa works collaboratively with clients to clarify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adjusts strategies over time as needs evolve.

Online therapy also offers flexibility. Sessions can take place through video calls or phone sessions, with additional options like live chat or text-based messaging, making it easier to get support in a format that fits a busy schedule and different communication styles.
