About Marlo
Marlo keeps sessions straightforward and down-to-earth. She listens without judgment and focuses on strengths. Conversations may include learning coping skills, spotting unhelpful thinking patterns, and practicing concrete behavior changes that reduce anxiety and lift mood.
Her work draws on client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and elements from dialectical behavior therapy and EMDR when appropriate. She also incorporates spiritual or faith-based perspectives for clients who prefer that focus. The goal is to build self-confidence, healthier relationships, and steadier emotional balance rather than quick fixes.
Marlo has spent more than two decades helping people who face mood disorders, anger challenges, trauma, substance concerns, and life transitions. She frames therapy as a collaborative process and uses common-sense strategies alongside mindfulness and reflective practices.
Clients who choose to work with Marlo start by describing the practical problems they want to solve. From there she helps set realistic goals, teaches life skills, and supports changes that reduce distress and improve daily functioning.

How Marlo’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Client-Centered Therapy centers the person in front of the therapist and focuses on listening, empathy, and building on strengths to help people make changes and feel understood. It is useful for stress, low self-esteem, and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns; it helps with anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Marlo will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then try methods that fit the client’s needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress and feedback guide the plan.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow for shorter check-ins when days are tight, and permit sessions without travel time. Therapists also often combine talk-based work with mindfulness exercises or behavioral homework that can be practiced between sessions to reinforce changes.
