About Marlo

Marlo Wilson is a licensed counselor who draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients understand and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

Background and approach

She adopts a relaxed, conversational manner that aims to create an empathetic and comfortable setting where clients can explore stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and ADHD. Her work also addresses caregiver stress, communication difficulties, forgiveness, life purpose, and building self-love.

With three years of documented clinical experience, Marlo emphasizes collaboration in shaping a personalized plan that fits each person’s goals and circumstances. She integrates motivational interviewing to support readiness for change and solution-focused techniques to identify practical steps forward.

Her approach centers on helping clients gain insight, develop skills, and cultivate healthier habits that support everyday functioning and emotional wellbeing. Marlo holds LPC and LCMHC credentials and practices from North Carolina.

She offers a compassionate, goal-oriented style intended to empower clients to make informed decisions and engage with life’s challenges more confidently.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Support

Marlo uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients examine and shift thought patterns that contribute to stress, anxiety, depression, and difficulties with attention. CBT focuses on concrete links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and provides practical strategies for changing unhelpful habits. She also draws on Motivational Interviewing to foster internal motivation and clarify personal reasons for change; this approach is useful when someone feels stuck or ambivalent about making adjustments in their life.

Choosing the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Marlo will work with each client to identify which methods align best with their goals, preferences, and the challenges they bring. Together they prioritize practical steps, measure progress, and adjust the plan as needed to find what helps most.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule. These options allow clients to access licensed professionals from their own locations, choose the communication style that feels most comfortable, and maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are impractical.
