I am a mental health counselor licensed in Oklahoma and provisionally licensed in Florida with years of experience working as a counselor and behavioral rehabilitation. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. I offer non traditional hours for individuals with demanding school, work, or life schedules.

My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and rational-emotive counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I am excited to start this journey with you!

Very congenial

 Apr 27, 2022 by T.Y. 
She’s great, she gave me the ability to change my entire perspective on life.

 Apr 15, 2022 by R.E. 
very helpful thank you

 Apr 14, 2022 by K.A. 
Marissa is extremely supportive and tunes into the best way for me to make progress. I always come away from the sessions feeling refreshed and productive and she helps me put things in perspective and realise the bigger picture and the progress I’m making.

 Mar 31, 2022 by R.E. 
Working with Marissa was like a breath of fresh air. I’ve always had issues with therapy because I never had one that listened and asked the right questions. Marissa is the complete opposite always listening and asking good follow up questions, never assuming anything until clarity is reached.

 Mar 24, 2022 by K.A. 
Marissa is very skilled at explaining complex concepts and mediating conversations between couples.

 Mar 16, 2022 by G.R. 
Marissa Blythe is a very compassionate therapist, she helps me find ways to be more peaceful.

 Feb 27, 2022 by M.U. 
Though it was my first experience in doing therapy session, Marissa showed how much skilled counselor she is during the last 6 months. Marissa has provided me with all the needed guidance in order to heal from various health issues like (relation ship problems, productivity, panic attacks, grief, depression and anxiety).

 Feb 26, 2022 by M.I. 
Marissa has been amazing. She lets me talk about whatever I want to each session and actually gives me feedback and doesn’t just say simple sentences like “I’m sorry you feel that way” for example. She has been a tremendous help to my recovery, I still have a long way to go but overall she has been there, given me worksheet (which I love), checks up on me, and genuinely cares. She is by far the best therapist I have had in person and on Better Help. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone! Thank you so much for helping me through my rough times and listening and feeling like a friend.

 Feb 16, 2022 by D.A. 
Words cannot begin to describe the tools given to me from Marissa to help me build myself into who I am now and am currently building myself into. I have found that she is truly helped me in ways beyond what words can describe. Marissa is approachable, easy to talk to, and has offered me various perspectives in the things that I struggled with. I have turned over a new leaf with her expertise and would strongly recommend her to any of my friends and strangers alike.

 Feb 15, 2022 by Q.U. 
Marissa is the first therapist that I feel comfortable with. So far she's been amazing at helping me identify the areas I need to work on and resources that I can use

Marissa has been the only therapist I've been able to open up with fully, and actually feel connected to. I feel comfortable chatting with her and telling her absolutely anything. She is very good at checking in to make sure I okay when I haven't scheduled a session and even in between sessions. I look forward to my sessions with Marissa each week!

 Oct 17, 2021 by A.L. 
Marissa has helped me so much, it feels like night and day. She is a great listener and I feel like she really understand what I need help with, sometimes better than I do. She’s honest, but not harsh. would recommend her to anyone seeking a kind, compassionate, extremely knowledgeable counselor.

 Oct 07, 2021 by T.H. 
Marissa makes me feel heard. You can tell she has her job down pat with the ease that she asks questions and guides someone through a session. I'm excited to see where things go from here

 Sep 20, 2021 by T.R. 
Marissa has great skill at getting to the core concerns and offering "homework" that helps me find solutions.

 Aug 30, 2021 by T.E. 
Marissa is extremely good, she checks in frequently, uncovers areas of opportunity to work on, and listens deeply. I’m so grateful that I found her on BetterHelp.

 Aug 29, 2021 by A.M. 
She listens with care and concern. I have been doing a lot of talking and after 2 sessions only we havent really dug into work for me yet. Still getting to know her but happy to do this!

 Aug 13, 2021 by S.H.

 Jun 30, 2021 by S.U. 
Miss Blythe has been very understanding and accommodating to my current situation. Allowing me to have more hands on work which seems to be helping me a lot right now.

 Jun 24, 2021 by K.E. 
Marissa is a methodical, patient counsellor who is careful to allow you to first express your concerns, worries and hopes before coming to a conclusion about how to address them in a constructive way. She is also emotionally supportive, especially during difficult moments, and sensitive to the feelings of her patients. I appreciate her thoroughness and her willingness to adjust to the pace of her patient.

 Jun 22, 2021 by E.M. 
Marissa is an excellent listener and professional. She helps me process what is going on right now rather than focusing on what was. I highly recommend her for anxiety management.

 Jun 13, 2021 by G.I. 
Before I meet Marissa Blythe i didn't believe therapy wilo ever work with me. She made me feel like someone's understands me and cares about my mental health. I've talk to friends about her and she is the best therapist i ever heard of

 May 03, 2021 by C.A. 
We had only one session so far, but the tips she gave me where pragmatic and helpful

 Apr 17, 2021 by N.A. 
My experience with Marissa has been great so far! She has made me feel heard and validated. I’ve seen a handful of therapists before in person, but Marissa has been the most helpful. I loved the techniques she introduced to deal with my struggles. She is very responsive and caring!

 Apr 17, 2021 by D.I. 
Marissa is a very nice and flexible person. She is easy to talk to and always ready to offer help as much as she can.

 Apr 13, 2021 by C.A. 
I wouldn’t describe myself as someone who is comfortable with the idea of counselling and was a little dubious going in. Marissa has been really great to work with and puts you at ease with a friendly tone to our chats. She’s very easy to talk to and I feel comfortable telling her how I’m feeling and what I’m thinking!

 Apr 13, 2021 by M.O. 
I've been meeting with Marissa Blyth for about 3 weeks and I've found her to be understanding, supportive, knowledgeable, and very, very helpful.

 Apr 12, 2021 by K.E. 
Marissa has been fantastic! She really takes the time to fully understand me, even though I may not understand myself. She makes many suggestions which allows me to choose what would be best for me.

 Mar 31, 2021 by J.A. 
Marissa reaches out and she is responsive. I feel comfortable communicating with her via messaging, voice and otherwise. She allows me to share information and process with understanding and opportunities to dig deeper and reflect without belaboring a point.

 Mar 31, 2021 by R.O. 
I love my sessions with Marissa. She is extremely insightful and helpful. I appreciate and value her suggestions and questions that get me to think about things that I need to.
