Marisa Chiuchiolo , LMHC

Marisa Chiuchiolo is a licensed mental health counselor in Florida who helps people handle stress, anxiety, low mood, and self-esteem struggles. She focuses on relationship and family concerns and supports clients working through life transitions and motivation issues. Marisa speaks English and Spanish and has five years of professional experience.

Her approach is practical and respectful. She listens first to understand what matters most to each person. Together she and the client shape goals and a clear plan for sessions. Conversations are tailored to daily life and real problems rather than jargon-filled theory.

Marisa often guides people through hard feelings like shame, guilt, grief, and anger. She also helps with attachment and abandonment worries, caregiver stress, and managing chronic illness or pain. Many clients come for help with communication problems, control issues, or decisions around divorce and separation.

Sessions can cover impulsivity, loneliness, money-related stress, and questions about life purpose or midlife transition. She works with mood disorders and offers steady support while people try new coping skills. The tone in sessions is calm, compassionate, and goal-focused.

Marisa tailors the therapy plan to each person’s needs and limits. She encourages small steps that build confidence over time. If someone prefers Spanish, she can meet in that language.

Evidence-based approaches and online care

Marisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions in a clear, practical way. One approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new responses in daily life; this helps with anxiety, low mood, and worry. Another approach centers on building stronger emotional connections and improving communication, which can ease relationship strains and attachment concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each person to choose which techniques match their goals, needs, and preferences. That process can change as progress is made, so plans are reviewed and adjusted over time.

Online therapy with Marisa is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people use face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to maintain regular contact while pursuing personal goals.
