About Marissa M.
A Little About Me
My path here wasn’t a straight line—my background is in criminal justice, mediation, and employment coaching—but every one of those roles taught me how to help people navigate hard situations with more structure and less overwhelm. Now I bring that same problem-solving mindset to executive function coaching.
Outside of work, I recharge with my family, travel, reading, and getting lost in a good movie. I believe in lifelong learning and balance, and I try to model that for the clients I work with.
My Coaching Style
I lead with a strengths-based approach, I want clients to recognize what they already do well before we tackle what’s harder. From there, we build realistic strategies together, not strategies I hand down from on high.
Clients describe me as approachable, encouraging, and practical. I like helping people juggle competing priorities without losing sight of what matters most to them.
My hope is that clients leave coaching not just having solved one problem, but having built the confidence to keep solving the next one on their own.
Working Together
Clients who enjoy working with me often appreciate that I:
-
Help you recognize and build on strengths you already have
-
Create realistic strategies that fit your actual life, not a generic template
-
Support you in balancing competing priorities without losing sight of what matters
-
Bring a calm, encouraging presence even when things feel like a lot
-
Focus on building confidence that lasts well beyond our sessions
Mistakes are just proof you’re trying something new—I want every client to feel safe doing that here.
