About Marie

Marie Demerville is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with six years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, parenting strain, anger, depression, and ADHD. Sessions are offered in English and Haitian Creole and focus on practical ways to manage strong emotions and everyday pressure.

She helps clients notice patterns that fuel anger and frustration. That can mean looking at unhelpful thoughts, communication habits, or reactions that make situations worse. She uses straightforward behavioral tools and skills practice rather than abstract theory. The aim is to reduce constant reactivity and improve daily functioning.

Marie uses a mix of approaches drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. That means she combines skills training, values clarification, and a focus on what the client finds meaningful. Sessions often include concrete exercises to practice between meetings.

Her background includes work with people affected by trauma, addiction, and neurodevelopmental differences such as autism and Asperger syndrome. She also supports those coping with panic attacks, phobias, hoarding, and issues around control or impulsivity. Practical problem solving and communication work are common in her sessions.

Marie describes her work as culturally aware and faith-informed when appropriate. People who want clear steps to manage anger, improve communication, or address co-occurring concerns like depression and substance issues may find her approach direct and action-focused.

How her approaches translate to online work

Marie uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address anger and related problems. ACT focuses on clarifying what matters to the client and learning to act in line with those values even when emotions are strong. CBT identifies patterns of thoughts and behaviors that feed anger and then practices small changes to reduce reactivity.

She treats online work as a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals and try methods to see what fits best. Adjustments to the plan come from regular check-ins so the approach matches the client's needs and preferences.

Session formats were not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find remote sessions help fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins on difficult days, or remove commute time. Online work can make it easier to practice skills in real-life settings and apply strategies between sessions.
