Meet Marisa Vanhala

Care Manager

Marisa Vanhala

Marisa Vanhala is currently pursuing her undergraduate degree in Psychology at DePaul University and has a deep passion for helping others and promoting mental well-being. She is especially driven to contribute to the destigmatization of mental health and to support individuals in feeling seen, understood, and empowered.

She is excited to begin her career at Light On Anxiety, where she can bring a people-first approach to her work and be part of a team dedicated to meaningful, client-centered care. Outside of work, Marisa enjoys yoga, walks and runs along the lake, and eating her way through Chicago.

 

I felt comfortable and in a safe place to speak my mind and my concerns.
