People who meet with her can expect a focus on problem solving, learning new coping tools, and practicing skills between sessions. The work typically centers on making immediate, usable changes that reduce tension and improve relationships.
How Marian uses CBT and trauma approaches online
Marian works with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. CBT breaks problems into small parts and teaches practical skills for changing unhelpful thinking and reactions, useful for anger, anxiety, and depression.She also has experience with trauma-focused approaches, including Cognitive Processing Therapy. Those methods help people understand and reframe traumatic memories and reduce the intense emotional reactions that can follow trauma.
Deciding which approach fits best is a shared process. Marian will work with clients to identify what feels most urgent, try strategies, and adjust the plan based on how things are going. The aim is a collaborative search for techniques that match goals and everyday life needs.
