She combines structured assessment and treatment planning with an empathetic, client-focused approach.

Based in Louisiana, she is accepting new clients, including those seeking international care, and offers multiple formats for therapy to accommodate varied needs and schedules.

Approaches, Collaboration, and Online Care

Marianne often integrates Attachment-Based Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into her work. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns and can help people improve connection, trust, and emotional regulation in relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and learn practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, stress, and coping challenges.

She approaches treatment collaboratively, exploring clients' goals, preferences, and life circumstances to determine which methods fit best. Marianne works with each person to adapt techniques and pace so the therapeutic plan reflects the client's needs and values rather than a one-size-fits-all model.

Online therapy with Marianne can be delivered by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or geographic distance. These formats make it easier to maintain consistent care during life transitions, coordinate work with school or family obligations, and continue therapy when in-person visits are not practical. Licensed professionals and therapists can effectively use these modes to provide supportive, goal-oriented care tailored to each client.
