The Circle A Mental Health and Wellness Collective

The Circle is a virtual mental health practice supporting women who feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or quietly hopeless.

We offer thoughtful therapy + medication management for women across North Carolina, including pregnancy and postpartum support.

You can look “put together” and still feel overwhelmed inside.

High-functioning anxiety often shows up as:
• Overcommitting
• Overthinking
• People-pleasing
• Difficulty resting
• Feeling guilty for slowing down

Many women don’t seek support because they think:
“I’m handling it. I’m fine.”

But constant exhaustion is not a badge of honor.

You deserve peace — not just productivity.

Save this if it resonates.

Share with a woman who needs the reminder.

You don’t have to be in crisis to deserve support.

If you’re functioning on the outside but feel overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected inside, you’re not alone and we are here to help.

“Looking ‘fine’ on the outside doesn’t mean you’re okay on the inside.”

If your heart feels heavy… your mind feels tired… or you’ve been trying to hold everything together on your own... this is your gentle reminder that you deserve support too. 💗

At The Circle, we help women who are navigating anxiety, burnout, postpartum changes, depression, or simply feeling unlike themselves.
You don’t have to struggle silently. You deserve care that feels soft, safe, and truly supportive.

✨ Therapy + Medication Management Together
One provider.
One warm, understanding space.
Whole-person care designed for women.

A place to feel seen, supported, and surrounded by other women who get it.

✨ Workshops & Wellness Sessions

You don’t need to be “struggling enough.”
You don’t need the perfect words.

Meet the Provider: Marissa Strenkert, DNP, PMHNP-BC

Hi, I’m Marissa. I’m one of the providers at The Circle, and I’m truly honored to support women through some of the most meaningful and tender parts of their lives.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP), but more than anything, I’m someone who cares deeply about creating a space where women feel safe, understood, and supported. I work with women experiencing anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma, and postpartum or perinatal emotional changes, and I approach each person with warmth, compassion, and curiosity.

At The Circle, I offer therapy and medication management with the same provider, which allows us to build a consistent, trusting relationship. My hope is that you feel comfortable showing up exactly as you are... whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, hopeful, exhausted, or simply ready for something different.

If you’re looking for a gentle place to land and someone to walk beside you, I would be honored to be part of your journey.

Hi everyone! I’m Courtney, co-founder and one of the providers at The Circle. I’m so grateful you’re taking a moment to get to know me.
