About Marisa

Marisa Pieri offers practical, evidence-based support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety. She works with clients who are struggling with addictions, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and low self-esteem. Marisa speaks in plain terms and focuses on small, manageable steps that build confidence over time.

She holds NCPS as a listed credential and has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. Her work centres on helping people recognise their own strengths and use those strengths to make changes they want. Marisa encourages honest conversation about what is working and what needs to change.

In sessions she helps people who want to cope better with cravings, reduce anxiety, rebuild motivation, or mend communication problems. She also supports those affected by abandonment issues, adoption and foster care experiences, attachment concerns, and a range of personality or behavioural difficulties. The emphasis is on practical strategies and clearer thinking rather than jargon.

Marisa aims to create a calm space where people can try things out and notice gradual progress. She frames therapy as a collaborative effort and asks questions to uncover realistic next steps. Small achievements are celebrated and used to build further change.

To begin, potential clients choose the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to the therapist's availability. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How evidence-based methods can work online

Marisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and skill building. One common approach uses structured exercises and goal-setting to reduce anxiety and improve coping with cravings. This helps people spot patterns, test small behaviour changes, and measure progress over time.

Another typical technique emphasises talking through past experiences to understand how they affect current relationships and self-worth. This supports people working through trauma, attachment issues, or low confidence by identifying unhelpful beliefs and practising new ways of relating to themselves and others.

Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work collaboratively with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they will try techniques and adjust the plan based on what proves useful.

If you are considering online work, check the specific session formats before booking as the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They can also let people choose quieter surroundings, avoid camera use when needed, or manage bandwidth by using phone-only options if offered. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt these ways of working to suit your circumstances.
