How Marianne’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early bonds shape current relationships and emotional responses. It helps people recognize patterns in trust, closeness, and jealousy so they can try new ways of relating.

Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s own experience and goals. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps the client find their own answers to parenting, life changes, or self-esteem struggles.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions. It teaches practical exercises to challenge unhelpful thinking and build new habits for anxiety, depression, or stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marianne will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. That conversation guides the choice of exercises, communication strategies, and pacing.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, shorten routine check-ins, or avoid travel time. Licensed professionals can use talk-based sessions and structured homework so progress can continue between appointments.
