Merissa Larios, LMHC

Psychotherapist
MA
I believe therapy is a collaborative journey grounded in trust, connection, and the relationship we build together. I often think of the process as a road trip-you are in the driver’s seat, and I’m alongside you as a supportive passenger. You set the direction and pace, while I offer insight, reflection, and guidance along the way. Together, we explore where you’ve been, where you want to go, and pause when something important comes into focus. I stand strongly in client autonomy and in the value of being truly seen and heard. It’s an honor to witness each person’s story, and I approach that responsibility with care, respect, and curiosity. Building a genuine connection is at the heart of my work, and I prioritize creating a space where you can show up as you are without judgment. My style is warm, relaxed, and person-centered, while also being direct when it supports growth and clarity. I take an eclectic approach to treatment, integrating mindfulness, DBT, solution-focused therapy, narrative therapy, art/music therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Choice theory. I believe therapy is most effective when it is collaborative, so I actively involve clients in shaping their goals and the direction of our work together. I work with adolescents and adults (ages 14-60) across a wide range of presenting concerns. I value authenticity, humor and real human connection as meaningful parts of the healing process. I look forward to the progress we can make together!
