Marissa Plotnikov, MSW, RSW

I am passionate about supporting individuals navigating anxiety, eating disorders, and symptoms related to obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). While my primary focus is on young adults, I have experience working with adults across the lifespan facing similar challenges.

I believe therapy is a collaborative process where you can explore your experiences, better understand your story, and build on your existing strengths. My role is not to "fix,” but to provide a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where healing and growth can occur.

My approach is strengths-based, trauma-informed, and integrative. Together, we'll develop practical strategies to help you navigate difficult emotions, manage life's challenges, and move toward the goals that matter most to you.

Like the terebinth tree, known for its resilience in difficult conditions, I believe people have an incredible capacity for growth and healing, even during life's most challenging seasons.
