Hi there, I'm Marie!

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and I provide biblically grounded therapy to help people find peace, purpose, and healing. Whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, family conflict, parenting struggles, or personality disorders, I use therapeutic practices rooted in faith to walk alongside you toward lasting hope and restoration.

My focus

I am dedicated to helping you become more self-aware and mindful, while developing practical coping skills that support you in navigating everyday challenges. Together, we will identify personalized goals that foster growth, healing, and hope.

My approach

I provide care through an open, empathetic, client-centered approach that honors each client’s unique journey and builds insight and self-efficacy. I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), solution-focused therapy, and mindfulness practices to support your goals.

My communication style

I prioritize clear, open communication to create a supportive and non‑judgmental environment where clients feel safe to share. I practice active listening and invite reflection, partnering with you empathetically as we explore your experiences.

My journey to mental healthcare

My passion for helping others grew out of my own life challenges. Walking through adversity taught me the importance of resilience and inspired me to support individuals and families in building strong, healthy foundations for lasting growth and hope.

My goals for you

I believe therapy is a journey we take together. By setting goals that reflect your deepest needs—whether healing relationships, nurturing self‑worth, or embracing growth—we’ll create a path that evolves with you. Each step brings new insight, guiding you toward hope, peace, and lasting transformation.

Our first session

In our first session, we’ll take time to get to know each other and talk about what led you here. Feeling nervous is completely normal—therapy is something we’ll build together, one step at a time. I’ll walk alongside you with patience and care as you move forward.
