Marissa Lian
Introduction
As a biracial, third-generation woman of Chinese and Mexican heritage, I bring both lived experience and deep clinical expertise to our therapeutic relationship. Having navigated my own significant life challenges, I'm passionate about working with clients who carry emotional pain and trauma. I specialize in high conflict couples therapy, helping partners transform destructive patterns into deeper connection, and have extensive experience with families who have endured extreme trauma, abuse, and intergenerational pain. I use an eclectic, strengths-based approach incorporating narrative therapy, CBT, and other evidence-based interventions tailored to your unique needs. I provide inclusive, culturally responsive care for individuals, couples, children, and teens from all walks of life, creating an affirming environment where your voice is truly valued. Whether you're struggling with relationship conflicts, parenting challenges, trauma recovery, or life transitions, I meet you exactly where you are with empathy and without judgment. You don't have to carry your pain alone. Together, we'll help you move from surviving to thriving, becoming the most empowered, resilient, and authentic version of yourself. Your healing journey starts with a single step, and I'm here to take it with you.
