About

Marissa Torres is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 12 years of experience supporting people who want more clarity, connection, and momentum in their lives. She recognizes that starting therapy can feel intimidating, especially when life already feels heavy, but she also believes that staying stuck in the same patterns can be just as difficult. Her work is grounded in a collaborative, down-to-earth style that meets clients where they are and focuses on practical steps forward rather than getting lost in endless analysis.

Marissa helps clients who feel disconnected, are trying to move through a breakup, or find themselves caught in constant comparison and self-doubt. She often works with concerns like anxiety, stress, depression, and relationship challenges, while also supporting issues such as self-esteem, grief, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, addiction, parenting stress, anger, career transitions, bipolar disorder, eating-related concerns, coping with life changes, and communication difficulties, including social anxiety and phobia.

Her goal is for clients to leave therapy feeling more empowered and better able to see their situation with fresh perspective. Together, Marissa and her clients work to shift habitual ways of thinking and responding into approaches that feel more meaningful, supportive, and aligned with the life they want to build.

Therapeutic approaches that fit online life

Marissa Torres draws from evidence-informed approaches that translate well to online therapy and can be tailored to what is bringing someone in now. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and daily habits, then practicing new skills that can support mood, stress, and anxiety management. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients make room for difficult feelings while building actions around personal values, which can be useful when life feels stuck or directionless. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured approach often used when past experiences continue to feel present, supporting clients as they work through distressing memories and triggers at a manageable pace.

Finding the right method is part of the work. Marissa collaborates with clients to clarify goals, understand preferences, and adjust the approach over time, whether the focus is relationships, self-esteem, depression, or coping with life changes.

Online therapy also makes it easier to get consistent support. Sessions can happen through video calls or phone sessions, and clients can also use live chat or text-based messaging for added flexibility between appointments. This range of options can help therapy fit real schedules, energy levels, and communication styles.
