The college/university experience is a unique transition point where many individuals face new challenges and often overwhelming situations. In my practice, I provide a collaborative and safe environment, ensuring you are not alone in facing these challenges. Whether you are dealing with emergent anxiety or mood issues, managing complex family dynamics, navigating questions about identity, belonging, or worth, or dealing with the pain of grief, my warm, engaging, and culturally relevant approach works in tandem with psychodynamic and evidence-based strategies to help you to identify tools that allow you to understand and cope with whatever you face. As we work together, I am committed to helping you survive and thrive by helping you know where you currently stand, identify where you desire to go and create actionable steps to get there. I am licensed to conduct telehealth sessions with individuals in Georgia and New York.
I am a therapist, addiction counselor, and yoga teacher with 10 years of experience. I specialize in mindfulness-based approaches to therapy. I believe that learning to stay present in the moment helps clients break free from being stuck in the past or overwhelmed by worries about the future. By combining Mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I help clients build awareness, self-compassion, and resilience. My goal is to support individuals in making meaningful, lasting changes that enhance their well-being and help them live more fully in alignment with their values. I believe in using the power of the therapeutic relationship to cultivate connection and shift perspective. I work from a holistic and integrative approach to help clients reach their full potential in all areas of life. My experience spans various settings including inpatient and outpatient mental health and substance use treatment programs.
Skeptical? Good! The therapeutic relationship and experience of your counselor should be taken seriously. If you are courageous enough to seek support; do your homework, find a good fit and be cautious of snake oil and shortcuts. You know more about your experience than anyone. Be open, trust your gut. Trailhead. I require a free 15-minute call to ensure we are a good fit. If not, I will provide recommendations or referral to get you to the most helpful resource. Best part of my work. I enjoy working with clients who have been through challenging times and keep fighting the voice that undermines their accomplishments, goals and aspirations. Like a great deal of my colleagues – I find this privileged, difficult and honorable work. I value diversity. My career allowed me to interact with everyone and anyone – I am more interesting and compassionate because of it. Training and Experience. On paper, I am a master's prepared social worker, seasoned as a licensed clinical social worker and have 20 years of experience empowering individuals, professionals and systems in the criminal justice, government, and healthcare sectors. I am a University at Buffalo School of Social Work alum from back in the day. I am a dad and husband. I am passionate, warm, ambiverted, sometimes grumpy, professional. I do not have a brand. Raised on hip hop, straight edge hardcore and skateboarding. I found my education and profession by accident. When I’m down and feel like an imposter, I remember this. The rest I found in pain, love, and my own therapy. Enough about me, let's find what is important to you! Approaches Mindfulness based: most generally, exercises and a practice on awareness of your senses. Simple and radically transforming. This approach is unique, flexible and backed by research and measurable outcomes. It’s accessible, experiential, and highly rewarding. I view this approach as mind hacks to get around the junk in your head and drop back into your body. Trauma informed: incorporating evidenced based practices, common courtesy and acknowledgment that all of us have experienced hurts in some form. It is a way to embody and practice a non-pathologizing approach that honors your past while being grounded in the present. Systems oriented: life in context gives us freedom to understand ourselves and accurately place the hurt of our experiences back where they belong. Internal Family Systems has impacted my practice and personal growth.

Hi, My name is Marissa Klejbuk and I am so glad you are here taking your first step in finding support! I have a passion in helping people find new ways of managing and working through stressors, especially big life changes like starting college, moving or starting a new job. I also have extensive experience working with anxiety, depression, identity, LGBTQ+, intimate partner violence, and sexual trauma. My approach is affirming, holistic, collaborative, and compassionate. I help people understand how our past experiences helped us get to where we are today, whether we initially view these as positive or negative. Sometimes that place is a point of overwhelm or emotional detachment with intrusive thoughts. Sometimes that place is being unaware of our strength and resilience. I wholeheartedly believe that the power of healing and breaking unhealthy patterns lie within the therapeutic practice that empowers your authentic self. I meet your vulnerability with mine to create a safe space that supports deeper processing. I believe in working holistically to help you connect to your mind, body, and soul. I often bring in creativity, metaphor, humor, cognitive-behavioral approach and body-based interventions including mindfulness and imaginative play. Expanding on your skills helps you feel more empowered to make choices that improve all areas of your life. Contact me today for a free phone consultation to see how I can best help you reach your goals!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My goal as a therapist is to help you achieve your goals and assist you in resolving or overcoming any challenges you may be facing. I have a no nonsense, solutions focused approach to therapy- the goal is not to have you in therapy forever, but rather to tackle the problem and then go out and live your best life. Deciding to seek help can be really challenging, so congratulations on taking that step! Everyone has a unique story and deserves an individualized approach to care. Once we decide to work together, we’ll act as partners in your therapeutic journey, but keep in mind therapy requires that YOU need to put in the work! I’ll be there to listen to you, and to really challenge you. Of course I will support you along the way. In our first session you will have the opportunity to share your story and what you hope to achieve in therapy. I will share my approach to therapy and how I may be able to assist you. From there, if you chose to work with me, we’ll work together in the sessions that follow to make these goals a reality for you.

I approach my work with clients as a collaborative process, with empathy and trust as the most important factors. I find genuine connection to be healing, and I feel fortunate to provide that for clients in supporting them through self exploration and overcoming challenges. I believe anyone can benefit from counseling, whether it’s to sort through past experiences, deal with current struggles, or work towards future goals. Taking an integrative style to therapy, I am able to adjust my approach to the unique needs of each client.
Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure about your next step? You might be trying to make sense of your relationships, major, career path, or identity, or you may be questioning your faith or looking for a place where you truly belong. You deserve support as you navigate these important moments. I specialize in helping young people who who may be highly sensitive. Many clients come to me for support with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationships, life transitions, grief, and healing from past experiences. Therapy is an opportunity to feel grounded, confident, and more connected to yourself. In our work together, you can expect warmth, clarity, and practical support that helps you understand what you are facing and move toward the life you want. If you are ready for change, I would be honored to support you.
Drawing upon over a decade of experience in solution-focused, client-centered, EMDR and cognitive behavioral psychotherapy techniques, I seek to serve my clients by creating a goal-orientated, collaborative treatment plan to help you achieve your desired goals, work through past trauma, relationship difficulties, get "unstuck", or work through problem areas. My approach to therapy is collaborative, compassionate, and relational. I believe that people are naturally motivated toward healing and recovery, and that an alliance with a supportive therapist, with whom you feel safe and comfortable, can facilitate this process. There is no template or single method that I use in my practice. Instead, we will determine the pace and style that is best for you. Throughout our work together, I will be open to and enthusiastic about the feedback you provide about the treatment. I will share my thoughts and assessments, with room for discussion. My goal is to facilitate and support your efforts to change so that you recognize your unique strengths. We will explore your current strategies and develop new methods of coping. I favor approaches that address the connection between mental and physical well-being, which include mindfulness, meditation, and breath-work. Depression, anxiety, trauma, and struggles with intimacy and relationships all have a profound impact on how we experience and negotiate our life's work. Together we can identify these roadblocks, work in a targeted way to resolve them, and promote the healthy development and happiness you deserve.
I provide quality therapy over video, when and where it’s convenient for you. I know that there are many real-life barriers to getting the help you deserve and am committed to helping you create change and feel better. I work primarily with college students as they transition to college life, navigate dating relationships and peer relationships.
