About Marie

Marie Cannon is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and anger. She meets readers where they are and aims to create a calm, respectful space for starting difficult conversations. Her tone is straightforward and caring, focused on practical next steps rather than labels.

With 13 years of experience as an LCSW in Nevada, she has worked with a wide range of concerns. That background includes social anxiety, panic attacks, mood disorders, and body image issues. She also supports people dealing with divorce, caregiver stress, and questions about life purpose.

Her sessions focus on listening closely to what matters most to each person. She helps clients identify patterns, try new ways of coping, and set realistic goals. Conversations are paced to fit the person’s comfort level and priorities.

Marie emphasizes honesty and respect in the therapeutic relationship. She encourages self-compassion while addressing hard feelings like shame, guilt, or anger. Practical problem solving and clearer communication skills are common outcomes of her work.

Taking a first step can feel risky, and Marie frames that step as a collaboration. She helps people map out manageable changes and supports follow-through. People who want to address persistent anger, low self-esteem, or anxiety often find this practical, steady approach helpful.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online care

Many therapists use evidence-based techniques that focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and building new coping skills. Cognitive approaches help people recognize and reframe thinking patterns that fuel anxiety, anger, or low mood. Behavioral strategies focus on trying small, structured changes to daily routines to reduce avoidance and improve mood.

Skills-based work is another common approach, teaching practical tools such as breathing or grounding exercises, communication practices, and step-by-step plans for managing urges or cravings. These tools are useful for problems like panic attacks, addiction urges, or moments of intense anger.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of therapy. The therapist will work collaboratively to test what helps most, adapt techniques to each person’s life, and adjust goals over time based on what is working.

Session formats were not specified in the original biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when that is helpful. It can also make it simpler to continue work across life transitions while maintaining momentum on goals.
