Remote sessions using CBT, ACT, DBT, and mindfulness
Marianne uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thought patterns and to develop concrete strategies for managing symptoms related to stress, anxiety, depression, and mood instability. Sessions that draw on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy emphasize values clarification and flexible, values-based action when difficult thoughts or feelings arise. These approaches are described in practical terms and organized around achievable steps.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy and mindfulness methods are used to strengthen emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and present-moment awareness. Motivational Interviewing and client-centered techniques support motivation and collaborative decision making, especially when addressing substance use concerns, ambivalence, or life transitions.
Remote appointments are available by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing people to choose the format that best fits their needs. Marianne frames the work as a partnership and discusses which combination of approaches and communication methods aligns with each person’s goals.
