Marissa Anderson-Botello<\/strong><\/h3>\n

LMHC | Therapist
Pronouns: She\/They<\/p>\n

Oyema\/ Greetings!<\/p>\n

My name is Marissa Anderson-Botello, and I am a Therapist here at The Evolution Group<\/a>. I believe therapy is a labor of love and collaboration where honoring agency, self-determination and safety is foundational.<\/p>\n

\u200bI am a bi-cultural woman who was born in Fresno, CA and grew up in the Bay Area. Before deciding to go back to school<\/a> to complete a Master\u2019s degree at The University of New Mexico, I worked for a decade in my community doing advocacy, crisis intervention, and transformative justice centered care for survivors of Sexual Assault, Domestic Violence, and Trafficking. My family, community, friends, and education have taught me that connection, liberation, and a strong relationship with the earth are important tools to navigate and heal the lived and generational traumas we carry.<\/p>\n

In session, I utilize a person centered and anti-oppression approach to help you navigate your own truths. I love working with folks of all cultures, genders, sexualities and ages! I also enjoy working with couples and families. I know that seeking therapy is deeply self-reflective, vulnerable and courageous! I hope wherever you decide to receive care, you give yourself credit for stepping into that power <3 Que assim seja.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“Because love is an act of courage, not of fear, love is a commitment to others. No matter where the oppressed are found, the act of love is commitment to their cause-the cause of liberation.”<\/em><\/p>\n

– Paulo Freire\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
