Marissa Rivera

Psychotherapist

I create space for folks who own multiple identities to face life's waves so that vulnerability and clarity become familiar states of being.

About Me

I create a truly welcoming space where you can explore the richness of your multiple identities. When life brings challenging waves, we can navigate these together, helping you feel more grounded. My approach encourages genuine vulnerability, allowing you to connect with inner clarity. This is for anyone seeking to integrate different parts of themselves and find ease in their own skin.

Approach

When life’s waves arrive for people holding several cultural and personal identities, I guide a steady, curious pace that helps uncover small, actionable shifts. Whether we meet in Austin or online in English, sessions blend close listening, gentle grounding, and attention to cultural context so changes land between visits. I offer short experiments, emotion-focused naming, and grief-sensitive curiosity to ease anxiety, process loss, and realign choices during transitions. This way of working tends to suit folks seeking integration, clarity, and practical tools alongside compassionate reflection.
