Marussia Role, PsyD

I have a passion for working with members of the LGBTQIA2S+, kink, chronic illness, and non-monogamy communities. I am dedicated to working with folks facing life and identity-related challenges, such as systemic oppression, emerging adulthood, and work/life balance. I collaborate with clients on a variety of concerns, such as anxiety, relationships, and imposter syndrome.

My Background and Approach
I am devoted to building genuine, nourishing connections with my clients. My graduate training focused on providing multiculturally affirming therapy to people of a variety of backgrounds and intersecting identities. I also trained in evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT) to aid clients in achieving their therapeutic goals. I have specialized training in working with members of the LGBTQIA2S+ community and the young adult population, both in university and community health settings. Last, I bring my lived experience as a Queer, White, chronically ill, genderqueer being to my work with clients. I own my privilege and discuss, as it arises, power dynamics that may occur between us due to our identities, beliefs, and experiences. I believe these conversations are critical for full honesty and trust in your mental health journey.
