Marisa Badgley, a dedicated counselor with credentials including MS, LPCC-S, and LICDC, believes that no crisis or concern is too great to be addressed within the framework of a supportive therapeutic relationship. She invites adults seeking counseling to take the crucial first step toward insight, meaning, and healing. Marisa expertly supports her clients in understanding and transforming emotions, thoughts, and behaviors that may lead to suffering and hinder healthy functioning. With a commitment to walking alongside individuals on their paths to healing, she addresses a variety of challenges, including relationship issues, anxiety, addiction, stress, trauma, and more. Her therapeutic approach draws primarily from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, and Humanistic perspectives, enriched by special training in Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and Mindful Self-Compassion. Each session with Marisa typically includes processing significant life events, exploring specific concerns, and cultivating skills necessary for a healthier lifestyle. Marisa recognizes the feelings of disconnection, discontent, and loneliness that can arise from the dysfunctional systems we navigate daily. Therefore, she strives to create a relaxed, compassionate, and nonjudgmental environment in which clients can explore their struggles and identify meaningful adjustments to reduce suffering.
