Move Past the Patterns That Hold You Back — Serving clients in Orange County, California
Hi! My name is Marissa Honjiyo. I am a depth oriented relational therapist that specializes in treating eating disorders, anxiety, and relationship issues.
If you’ve spent a lot of time trying to understand why certain patterns keep showing up, but you still feeling stuck. You might be struggling to break out of unhealthy relationship dynamics, caught in a cycle of shame and guilt with food, or need clarity on what is keeping you from feeling like you’re thriving. If you’ve noticed certain patterns repeating in your life and want to understand why, I’m here to help us explore them together and create real change.
I believe that our past relationships impact us, especially in our earliest relationships. It shape how we see ourselves and how we relate to others. Healing happens within relationship. This includes therapeutic relationships. I prioritize authentic connection and use the safety of our relationship to help you work toward your goals.
I use a variety of different modalities including attachment theory, relational therapy, and a psychodynamic approach in addition to being trained in Brain Spotting I and Restoration Therapy II.
