About Marissa

Marissa Copeland is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Louisiana with more than a decade of experience in counseling and clinical settings.

Background and approach

She works with a broad range of concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, stress, relationship and family issues, ADHD, grief, bipolar symptoms, and self-esteem challenges. Her practice also addresses related areas such as adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, workplace concerns, life purpose, and women's issues.

Her style blends client-centered principles with cognitive behavioral techniques to help people explore how their thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors influence wellbeing. Marissa emphasizes collaboration, treating clients with respect and sensitivity while avoiding stigmatizing labels.

She weaves self-esteem building and empowerment into treatment plans and adapts interventions to fit each person's specific needs and goals. Marissa aims to create an authentic therapeutic relationship where clients and therapist work together to identify barriers and practical strategies for improving quality of life.

She holds LPC licensure and brings ten years of practice experience to her work in Louisiana and Alabama. Marissa focuses on tailoring dialogue and treatment so clients can connect with their feelings, clarify priorities, and move toward meaningful change.

Approaches for Online Sessions and Practical Benefits

Marissa draws on client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to guide online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a collaborative, empathic relationship so clients can explore feelings and values; it is useful for issues like self-esteem, life transitions, and exploring identity. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, offering structured skills for managing anxiety, stress, mood concerns, and practical challenges.

Determining the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Marissa works together with each person to find what fits best. She tailors interventions to clients' goals and preferences, combining empathic listening with practical strategies and checking in regularly to adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging provides flexibility for busy schedules and for people who prefer remote options. These formats make it easier to attend sessions from different locations, maintain continuity during life changes, and access consistent support while still allowing the therapist and client to collaborate on meaningful, skills-based work.
