Marisa Knight, LPC

Marisa works with adults who feel confused by their reactions in relationships. This may look like becoming highly anxious, feeling “clingy” or “too much,” or changing your behaviors to avoid pushing away your partner. For others, it shows up as pulling away when things start to feel close, getting stuck in cycles of doubt about the connection, or suddenly feeling the “ick.” She helps you understand how early attachment patterns shape your relationships today, even when those reactions feel surprising or don’t match how you see yourself. 

 

In addition to her work with attachment patterns, Marisa specializes in trauma and has been trained in EMDR since 2014, including advanced techniques. EMDR is a “bottom-up” therapy that works directly with the nervous system to process traumatic experiences that are stored in the body, not just the mind. Through trauma-focused work, Marisa helps you reduce symptoms, restore a sense of safety, and move forward without feeling defined by what you’ve been through.
