She also uses client-centered therapy, which means she listens closely and follows the client's priorities so sessions focus on what matters most to that person. Cognitive behavioral techniques are used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical strategies to change them.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Marisa will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and decide together which methods to try. That collaborative planning helps keep sessions relevant and grounded in everyday life.
