Background and approach

Her work highlights practical tools and emotional support so clients can take steps that feel manageable and purposeful. Licensed in Florida as an LPC and LMHC with three years of professional experience, Marie integrates evidence-informed methods to address common life transitions, workplace pressures, and concerns like body image, caregiver stress, guilt, loneliness, and communication problems.

Sessions aim to pair real-world strategies with an empathic therapeutic relationship to support sustainable progress.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

This practice commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, turning overwhelming symptoms like anxiety or low mood into manageable tasks and observable progress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is also used to help people clarify what matters to them and learn strategies for accepting difficult thoughts while committing to meaningful action. Attachment-Based Therapy informs work around relationship patterns and emotional responsiveness, offering insight into how early connections influence current ways of relating.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to a client's concerns, goals, and preferences and discuss which methods might best support progress, adapting techniques as therapy unfolds to fit the individual's needs.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent support from licensed professionals without travel, and they allow clients to select formats that suit how they engage best in therapy.
