Dramatherapist, Reiki Master and Integral Eye Movement Practitioner
Marisa is HCPC registered.
She graduated from Royal Central School of Speech and Drama in 2020 with a MA in drama and movement therapy.
Marisa creates a warm, safe space for clients to explore personal narratives using creative modalities.
Through use of storytelling, art work, play, enactment, breath work, movement, creative expression, and plenty of time for self and co-reflection, clients are encouraged to explore their inner world and are empowered to reframe their story.
Sessions are very much client-led and are typically a combination of verbal and non-verbal communication, as much as each person feels comfortable with.
Marisa also works with IEMT (Integral Eye Movement Therapy) for clients who are seeking change from undesirable behaviour patterns or who wish to reduce intense feelings around unpleasant memories.
IEMT can also be effective in helping those who have experienced trauma, complex trauma, and PTSD.
Working with IEMT can create rapid shifts and clients typically need no more than 2 – 3 sessions.
Marisa is also a Karuna Reiki master and offers treatments to help clients release stress, tension, and anxiety.
She is passionate about working holistically and believes the mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual aspects of a person are interlinked.
Marisa works with both children and adults and has an enhanced DBS certificate.
Marisa holds a membership with The Association of IEMT Practitioners, The UK Reiki Federation and is a full member of The British Association of Dramatherapists.
