About
Dr. Marissa Goldman, LCSW, brings a focused, compassionate approach to working with women who often shoulder many responsibilities for others. With six years of clinical practice, she attends to the realities of burnout, chronic worry, and the relentless pressure to perform wellness. She meets people where they are and centers practical strategies alongside exploration of deeper patterns.
Her work addresses stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, self esteem, coping with life changes, and coaching. Additional areas of focus include caregiver stress, communication problems, life purpose, post-traumatic stress, self-love, and women's issues. She integrates cognitive behavioral techniques with attachment-aware and trauma-informed perspectives, and she values mindfulness practices as tools for steadying attention and reducing reactivity.
Marissa emphasizes a relational stance that allows space for the messy, unpolished parts of life. She supports clients in noticing inherited stories about who they should be, learning to name needs, and trying small experiments that shift daily patterns. For those who are ready to set some of the load down, she offers a steady, practical collaborator in the work of change.

Remote sessions grounded in practical, relational care
Dr. Marissa Goldman uses a mix of cognitive behavioral methods and trauma-aware, attachment-informed perspectives to guide online work. Cognitive behavioral techniques are framed in everyday language and focus on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors. Trauma-aware and attachment-informed ideas help clarify how early relational patterns shape current reactions and relationship rhythms.
Mindfulness-based practices are woven in to help strengthen present-moment noticing and reduce reactivity, offered as brief exercises and reflections that can fit into busy days. Together these approaches support exploration of values, boundaries, caregiving stress, and identity shifts in a step-by-step way.
Online sessions are available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing flexibility in how people choose to connect. This range of options can suit those who prefer face-to-face video work as well as those who need shorter, message-based check-ins between sessions.
