Marie is very professional while also extremely compassionate. Since beginning therapy with Marie, I truly feel and see a positive impact in my life, something I struggled with while working with other therapists. therefore I think others will also find a positive impact with Marie as well.
VERIFIED PATIENT TESTIMONIAL

Hi there, I'm Marie!

I work with adolescents and adults who are experiencing a variety of life stressors and work towards finding practical coping skills to help manage and reduce the symptoms they are experiencing.

My focus

In my current practice, I work with clients aged 13 and up. I have extensive experience treating anxiety, depression, stress, grief and loss, and trauma. I work with a variety of populations, including the LGBTQIA community, pregnancy and postpartum, and those experiencing medical comorbidities.

My approach

Empathy, acceptance, growth, and safety are the cornerstones of my practice. I use a blended, integrative approach to therapy to address each person as an individual. Some of the theoretical approaches you'll find in my work are CBT, DBT, solution-focused, and mindfulness, to name a few.
