Marlo Floyd

Marlo Floyd is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and trauma. She writes plainly and meets clients where they are, offering steady, strengths-based care. Marlo aims to help people find more confidence, better relationships, and relief from overwhelming feelings.

She brings 23 years of clinical experience in Arkansas. Her work blends talk therapy with mindfulness and spiritual perspectives when clients want that element. She also uses practical skills training to tackle habits and thinking patterns that keep problems going.

In sessions she focuses on concrete changes people can use day to day. That can mean learning emotion regulation skills, practicing new ways to communicate, or building routines that reduce stress. She also supports people dealing with grief, addictions, parenting strain, caregiver stress, and career pressures.

Marlo draws on several approaches: client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques to shift thoughts and behaviors, dialectical behavior therapy skills for emotion tolerance, EMDR for trauma processing when appropriate, and mindfulness for staying grounded. She tailors these methods to each person’s needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.

Her style is compassionate and nonjudgmental, and she often integrates clients’ spiritual or faith perspectives when requested. To begin, prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule sessions according to her availability.

Practical approaches for online counseling and skills work

Marlo commonly uses client-centered listening and cognitive behavioral therapy in her work. Client-centered therapy focuses on a respectful, nonjudgmental conversation that follows the client’s pace and priorities. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete steps to change unhelpful patterns.

She also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills for managing strong emotions. DBT skills include techniques for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These methods are often helpful for people dealing with anger, anxiety, or mood volatility.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try methods that fit the client, and adjust the plan as needed. Clients and therapist work together to decide which combination of methods helps most.

Please confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist about scheduling and how to shape sessions to meet everyday needs.
