In her practice, Marie strives to create a safe and supportive space where individuals feel comfortable sharing their stories and growing through them.
She uses evidence-based techniques and values collaborative exploration, drawing from attachment-based and trauma-informed approaches. Her work is grounded in the belief that therapy is a collaborative journey—where the process of learning and growth is reciprocal.
To stay rested and fueled, Marie enjoys connecting with nature, spending time with family and friends, and nurturing herself through yoga, books, and movies.
