About

I’m Marissa Price, MSW, LSW (she/her) — a Liberatory Life Coach, certified facilitator, digital business strategist, and trauma-informed guide devoted to supporting sensitive, deeply feeling people — with a special focus on Black women and femmes — as they heal nervous system patterns formed in survival, reclaim the truth of their voice, and gently step into lives that feel soft, spacious, sovereign, and deeply their own.

With a Master’s in Social Work and over seven years in economic development, I bring a rare blend of emotional depth and strategic clarity. I’ve supported people navigating burnout, career transitions, entrepreneurship, childhood wounding, and the exhaustion that comes with carrying too much for too long. My work is rooted in nervous system regulation, inner child healing, ancestral connection, boundaries that feel embodied — not forced — and business expansion that honors sensitivity instead of overriding it.

In every session, I hold you with care, challenge you with gentleness, and walk alongside you as you rebuild from the inside out. Not by pushing harder, but by softening into self-trust, honoring your capacity, and learning to live from the wisdom of your body.

You don’t have to hold it all alone anymore. There is room here for your tenderness, your brilliance, your pace, and your power.

This is a trauma-informed, LGBTQIA+ affirming, neurodivergent-aware, anti-oppressive coaching space where sensitive people — especially Black women and femmes — can soften, be fully seen, and heal without shrinking.

Testimonials

It took me so long to trust someone with my personal history and specific vulnerabilities. It was time for me to seek support on my journey to self-care. I was looking for someone who was gentle, non-judgmental, and understanding of our history in this country and how it has, and continues to, impact Black women today. I had listened to Marissa at the Exodus Summit and visited her website. I took the leap, and I am so glad I did.

- Tuesday

Marissa exudes kindness and wisdom. She created a safe, supportive space while honoring my vulnerability. Her insightful questions and suggestions helped clarify ways I could reach my goals. Marissa also exemplifies the power of compassionate approaches—she’s optimistic without being unrealistic, she grounded our conversation by refocusing on our BIPOC identity, and she challenged me to realign my actions with my inner values. She's a true alchemist - someone who transforms the mundane into handspun gold, in this case, meaningful growth :) I highly recommend speaking with her—10/10!

- Past Client

Marissa truly examines how oppressive structures devalue, discard, dehumanize, and use black women with no regard for our humanity and well-being. Marissa is an amazing healer and brilliant thinker. After identifying the problem and the harm, Marissa also shares healing tools such as journaling, joining community with like-minded black women, and also taking back your power by removing yourself from the situation. Thank you Marissa for showing up your authentic self and helping others to do the same. Much appreciated.

- Carla

My session with Marissa was truly helpful. Her exceptional listening skills create a safe space where you can be authentically yourself, free from harsh judgment—something I, as a Black woman, deeply appreciated. Marissa's intuitive understanding pinpointed exactly where I could grow and identified the areas where I felt stuck. Her insights were spot-on and energizing. If you're seeking a confidante to brainstorm ideas with and a cheerleader to boost your confidence, look no further. Marissa is the one you want to work with!

- Ikeena

Receiving coaching from Marissa was an enlightening experience. She gave me insight on avenues I could take in my business that I hadn't thought of. One of which led me to a great opportunity. Marissa's soothing voice and social worker style coaching puts you at ease to share your struggles while she shares her knowledge, experience, and empathy. I highly recommend a coaching session with Marissa to get you on your way.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between therapy and coaching?

Therapy focuses on diagnosing, treating, and healing clinical or emotional distress, often exploring past experiences in depth. Coaching is future-oriented and centers growth, clarity, and skill-building. In my practice, coaching supports your nervous system, self-trust, boundaries, and aligned decision-making—but it is not a substitute for mental health treatment. Many clients work with me alongside their therapist, while others begin coaching once they’re ready to move from processing into integration, expansion, and creating a life or business aligned with who they’re becoming.

How do I know if coaching is right for me?

Coaching is a great fit if you’re ready for gentle accountability, somatic support, and structured guidance while making a transition in your life or business. Whether you’re healing from burnout, recovering from a toxic job, rebuilding your confidence, or stepping into entrepreneurship, coaching offers personalized strategies and nervous-system-aware support to help you move forward with clarity and ease. If you desire change but feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to begin, coaching provides a grounded pathway that honors your pace.

What can I expect during coaching sessions?

Every session is personalized to what your body, goals, and season of life require. Some days we focus on nervous system healing, grounding, and emotional regulation. Other days we clarify your next career or business steps, map out strategy, or address self-doubt and pattern shifts. You’re never asked to choose between “healing work” and “action work”—we weave both together so your decisions and growth come from alignment, not urgency or pressure.

Do you offer sliding scale pricing?

Yes. My 1:1 Healing & Liberation Coaching Sessions and 1:1 Aligned Business Strategy Sessions are offered on a sliding scale to support accessibility while honoring the value of this work.

Pricing ranges from $120-$180 for 1:1 Healing & Liberation Coaching Sessions and $90–$150 for 1:1 Aligned Business Strategy Sessions, and you’re invited to choose the rate that best reflects your current financial capacity—no explanation or documentation is required.

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes. I offer flexible payment options to support accessibility. Clients can pay in full, in monthly installments, or—depending on the package—after every two sessions. If you’re committed to the work and need a payment structure that feels supportive, we can find an option that aligns with your capacity and honors the energy exchange of this work.

Can coaching include help with healing, career transition planning, and business development?

Absolutely. Because many of my clients are navigating multiple layers of transformation at once—emotional, professional, spiritual—I tailor coaching to your needs. Your work with me may include nervous system healing, self-trust building, clarifying your next career move, designing an exit plan, or beginning a values-aligned online business. You don’t have to separate your healing from your growth; we make space for the full complexity of your journey.

What is the time commitment, and how long do clients usually work with you?

Most clients choose a 4-, 8-, or 12-session package depending on their goals and what they’re navigating. Some receive what they need in a shorter container, while others prefer ongoing support as they move through transitions, healing, or business growth. Sessions are typically every 2–3 weeks, giving you time to integrate the work between sessions.
