About Marianne
Marianne Falk uses a practical, person-focused approach to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and life changes. She works from the idea that clients know themselves best and that therapy should be tailored to each person's situation. Marianne draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to build sessions around what matters most to the individual.
She has nine years of clinical experience and holds the LPCC credential, which she uses while supporting adults in a variety of settings.
Background and approach
That background includes community mental health, inpatient behavioral health, group counseling, and online work. Marianne has collaborated with psychiatrists when medication oversight was part of care. In sessions she focuses on clear, manageable steps rather than long lists of theory.
Conversations aim to identify patterns that feed anxiety, depression, or relationship strain and then try practical alternatives. She also helps people facing grief, trauma, addiction concerns, parenting stress, and career shifts. Marianne pays attention to how daily routines, communication habits, and thinking patterns affect mood and behavior.
She offers tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to shift unhelpful thoughts and Client-Centered Therapy to create space for clients to lead the conversation. The work is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. People often come for help with caregiver stress, codependency, isolation, or midlife questions.
Marianne combines real-world skills with steady listening to help clients sort through decisions, manage difficult emotions, and find clearer next steps.
Online approaches that focus on you
Client-Centered Therapy puts the person’s experience first. It emphasizes listening, empathy, and following the client's lead so sessions reflect what matters most. This approach helps when someone needs a supportive space to talk through life changes, parenting stress, grief, or relationship concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses straightforward exercises to spot unhelpful thinking and practice alternative responses. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and habits tied to stress or addiction.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Marianne will work together with each client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative process can include trying short-term CBT tools, or focusing on listening and exploration with Client-Centered methods, and adjusting as needs change.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people work face-to-face from wherever works best, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is an issue, and live chat or text-based messaging provide quick check-ins or lower-intensity options. These formats make it possible to fit sessions into a busy day, manage ongoing caregiver responsibilities, or maintain contact during life transitions.
