Marie found her counseling calling in helping others reclaim their power after adversity and discover their true, authentic life. Together we can clear blocks to becoming fully you that has been lost and buried. We will process anger, frustration, resentment, anxiety, depression, stress, apathy, fear, that manifest to become problems in relationships, sexuality, communication, and work problems.

 

Marie specializes in Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). Her passion lies in helping clients work through anxiety, depression, panic and commitment and/or relationship issues due to attachment disorders. She merges Humanistic, Short-Term and Positive Psychology to her therapeutic approach and utilizes a variety of techniques including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Play Therapy, Mindfulness, Positive Psychology,  and Emotional Freedom Technique/Tapping.
