Marianne also draws on client-centered practices and motivational interviewing to keep the work grounded in each person’s values and goals. Her approach is straightforward and collaborative, with an emphasis on real-life skills and day-to-day coping.

Marianne pays attention to life transitions and young adult concerns, helping clients clarify purpose and rebuild routines.

Marianne aims to make the first steps less overwhelming. She listens for what matters most to each person and helps set achievable goals. The work may include learning new ways to respond to anger, practicing mindfulness exercises, or developing plans to reduce risky behaviors.

How Marianne’s approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It can be useful for anger, anxiety, and finding direction when life feels stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches concrete tools to change unhelpful patterns and reduce panic or low mood. Mindfulness Therapy involves simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and build calmer responses to stress and cravings.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Marianne will collaborate with each person to decide which methods make the most sense based on goals and preferences. That conversation may shift as progress is made, and adjustments are encouraged to keep the work practical and relevant.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are set by the therapist and may change. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow people to join from locations that are quieter or more convenient. It can also make short check-ins or regular weekly sessions simpler to schedule when balancing work or school commitments.
