About Marianne

Marianne Williams is a Kentucky LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with 14 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship struggles, low self-esteem, depression, intimacy-related issues, and anger. She also supports people facing career pressure, bipolar mood concerns, compassion fatigue, and life transitions.

Marianne works in a straightforward, person-focused way. She treats clients as the experts on their own lives and builds on each person’s existing strengths. In sessions she listens, asks practical questions, and helps people try new ways to respond to hard feelings or repeated patterns.

Her approach draws on several established methods. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters and take committed steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. Dialectical Behavior Therapy and mindfulness practices help with emotion regulation, stress, and impulsive reactions.

Marianne also uses client-centered techniques and motivational interviewing to encourage clearer goals and stronger motivation. She often pairs skills practice with real-world experiments so people can test small changes between sessions. This can include breathing and grounding exercises, short behavior tests, or new ways to speak up in relationships.

She works in English and accepts international clients. Practical details such as scheduling and session formats should be confirmed before booking. To begin, prospective clients follow the site's matching flow and arrange a first meeting.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, purposeful steps toward those values. It can be useful for managing anger that comes from avoidance, frustration, or feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns through practical exercises and homework. CBT works well for stress, anxiety, and reactive behavior by breaking problems into manageable parts.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marianne collaborates with each client to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and daily life. She checks in about what is helping and adjusts tools or techniques as sessions progress so the plan fits the person rather than the reverse.

Specific session formats are not listed in the available biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people practice skills and behavior changes in their usual environments, then bring back what worked to discuss and refine with the therapist.
