About Marianne

Marianne Terrebonne is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 40 years of clinical experience. She draws on long practice in assessment, counseling, and treatment planning to help people facing meaningful life shifts. Her work aims to be practical and straightforward so clients can see usable steps forward.

She spent many years working under a school system umbrella and served 13 years as a school-based liaison with Juvenile Diversion Services alongside the Office of the District Attorney. That background shaped her focus on real-world problem solving and clear planning. Clients bring concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, and midlife crisis.

Marianne uses a mix of approaches to match each person's needs. She integrates attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns and client-centered methods to keep sessions focused on the person's goals. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to reframe unhelpful thoughts and skills from dialectical behavior therapy for emotional regulation.

Her practice supports people dealing with parenting pressures, career transitions, addictions, eating concerns, and life purpose questions. Additional focus areas include aging and geriatric issues, codependency, communication problems, and veteran-related concerns. Marianne also addresses ADHD, postpartum depression, and compassion fatigue.

She works from Louisiana and conducts therapy in English. International clients may be supported; confirm session options before booking. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

How Marianne’s approaches translate to online work

Marianne combines attachment-based and client-centered approaches with cognitive behavioral tools to tailor care. Attachment-based work looks at how past relationships shape current patterns and helps people change those interaction habits. Client-centered methods keep sessions focused on the client's own goals and pace, helping people feel heard while deciding what to work on. Cognitive behavioral techniques target unhelpful thoughts and teach concrete skills to manage anxiety, mood, or stress.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Marianne treats this as a collaborative conversation and adjusts methods as needs and goals become clearer. She discusses options, tests what helps, and shifts focus when different tools are needed.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life because sessions can be scheduled around work, caregiving, or travel. It also lets people use shorter check-ins or phone-based conversations when that suits their day. Licensed professionals can help pick session rhythms that match each person’s routine and goals.
