Marissa Tcharie, LCSW

Marissa Tcharie is a New York based therapist who supports people working through depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationship challenges. With an emphasis on personal growth and deeper self-understanding, she helps clients navigate social anxiety, feelings of isolation, communication struggles, and issues with self-esteem. Her practice attends to the emotional impacts of guilt and shame while also helping clients explore life purpose, self-love, and forgiveness.

Marissa is an LCSW, which stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker - a professional credential that authorizes her to deliver clinical social work and psychotherapeutic services. She brings a compassionate, Christian-informed perspective to sessions, creating a reflective space where values and spirituality can be part of the therapeutic work when clients wish to include them. Her approach centers on partnering with individuals to identify strengths and build more satisfying ways of relating to themselves and others.

Committed to walking alongside each person she sees, Marissa aims to offer practical guidance and emotional support as clients develop healthier patterns, improve communication, and pursue meaningful change in their lives.

Evidence-Based Support and Flexible Online Care

Marissa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that emphasize practical skills and emotional understanding. One approach focuses on skills-based work - teaching coping tools and communication strategies that help manage stress, anxiety, and relationship tensions in day-to-day life. Another strand of her practice is trauma-informed support, which attends to the effects of past hurt and abuse and helps clients process difficult memories while rebuilding a sense of safety and self-worth.

Finding the right combination of techniques is an ongoing, collaborative process. Marissa works with each client to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, adjusting methods over time so therapy fits the person rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy with Marissa is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals from home or elsewhere and to continue steady progress even when life is busy or circumstances change.
