About Marissa
Marissa Cox is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in North Carolina who helps people manage stress, anxiety, parenting struggles, self-esteem concerns, ADHD, and relationship or family issues. She also supports people facing career changes, coping with life transitions, and those seeking coaching around life purpose and self-love.
Her approach is practical and straightforward, aimed at helping people make small, workable changes that fit everyday life. Marissa uses a warm and interactive style in sessions.
Background and approach
Conversations are guided by respect and sensitivity, and she avoids stigmatizing labels. She listens first to understand each person's priorities, then works with them to set clear, manageable goals. Her work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try new behaviors to feel and function better.
Sessions are tailored to the person rather than following a one-size-fits-all script. Marissa blends structured techniques with open dialogue so clients can practice new skills between meetings. With seven years as an LCSW, she combines recent clinical experience with earlier roles in mental and behavioral health.
That background informs a practical focus on problem-solving and skill building. Marissa aims to help people build tools that fit daily routines and responsibilities. She offers multiple ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
People interested in starting are encouraged to complete the short matching questionnaire and schedule a session when ready.

Online support
How CBT and online sessions can support change
Marissa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different actions. CBT breaks problems into steps you can work on between sessions and is often used for anxiety, stress, and social fears.Her online offerings let the two of you experiment with practical skills in a flexible way. Sessions combine structured exercises from CBT with open conversation so goals and homework match real life. She will work together with each person to choose techniques and a pace that fit their needs and preferences.
Online therapy here is designed for flexibility and access. Video calls let you see facial cues and use shared worksheets. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or during a quick check-in. Live chat or text-based messaging can support shorter check-ins, ongoing coaching, or help practicing skills between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and day-to-day routines.
