Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Marian uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. This approach involves practical strategies and skill-building to address symptoms of depression, anxiety, and mood concerns by modifying thought patterns and developing new coping skills.

For trauma-related concerns she uses Cognitive Processing Therapy, which focuses on processing traumatic memories and reducing the impact of trauma-related beliefs. This method helps people work through traumatic experiences and the thoughts and feelings that can follow them.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Marian works collaboratively with each person to determine the best fit based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors treatment plans and adjusts techniques as therapy progresses to support the client's objectives.

Online therapy with Marian is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility to fit different schedules and circumstances. These options make it easier for clients to access licensed professionals and maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are not possible.
