Marissa Bell, MA, LPC,
About Marissa Bell (She/Her)
Marissa Bell helps individuals, teens, couples, and families find practical paths toward emotional stability, resilience, and healthier relationships. As a Licensed Professional Counselor with LifeStance Health, she provides mental health therapy for patients across Texas, supporting people who are navigating anxiety, depression, and ADHD with evidence-based care and a compassionate, collaborative approach. Her goal is to create a supportive environment where patients feel heard while developing skills that lead to lasting change. Marissa is particularly passionate about supporting individuals who are facing complex life circumstances, including those recently discharged from a psychiatric hospital, those participating in court-ordered treatment, and individuals navigating workers’ compensation–related mental health challenges. She understands that these situations often involve stress, uncertainty, and significant life disruption, and she works closely with patients to help them stabilize, rebuild confidence, and move forward with practical coping strategies and structured therapeutic support. Her clinical work often focuses on anxiety, depression, and trauma-related concerns, and she offers therapy designed to help patients understand patterns, regulate emotions, and strengthen daily functioning. Marissa integrates approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). She provides individual therapy, couples counseling, family therapy, and group therapy. Marissa also has experience supporting populations including first responders, military and veteran communities, and LGBTQ+ individuals, along with additional groups. Marissa treats teens, young adults, adults, and seniors, helping patients manage life transitions, relationship concerns, and emotional health challenges at every stage of adulthood. She earned her education from Dallas Baptist University and Texas Tech University and has been practicing since 2021. Outside of her clinical work, Marissa enjoys spending time with family, reading, exploring nature, and caring for animals; interests that reflect her appreciation for balance, connection, and wellbeing.
