    Testimonials

    Therapist and patient talking

    “Working with Marissa has been invaluable in setting up and growing our one-to-one counselling and group therapy service at MS Together. Her expertise and thoughtful approach have been key in helping us establish a high-quality, sustainable service that is already making a huge difference in our community.”

    - Amy, CEO of MS Together

    Marissa took time to build safety in the group before approaching more challenging topics and created space for us to talk openly about difficult and complex experiences and feelings.

    - Anonymous participant of a reflective practice space

    Marissa's creative lens has always brought a refreshing perspective to supervision, and I have learnt a lot. She has always encouraged me to trust my intuition, explore new angles and help me grow with confidence.

    - Jay, Counsellor

    I have had the privilege of working with Marissa in both a supervisory and collaborative capacity when developing and facilitating training together. I cannot recommend her enough as a supervisor, especially as she works in a collaborative manner, which has shaped my own journey as a facilitator. 

    - Ronnie, Dramatherapist

    We commissioned Marissa as our head of Impact, Outcomes and Evaluation to put in place systems that enable us to continually ensure that we are having the desired impact as an organisation. Marissa's knowledge of anti-oppressive, Trauma-Informed practice has ensured that we have an immediately actionable, scalable, human-centred, neurodivergent-accessible, collaborative system of impact measurement that will enhance and improve our offer in the long-term.

    - Kyra, Director of NeuroTribe UK CIC

     

    Marissa was great, the workshop was informative without being an information overload. The workshop felt well paced and we were given lots of opportunities to ask questions.
