How Marianne works

Therapeutic approaches for online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following each person's lead. It aims to create an accepting space where the work grows from the individual's own goals and experience. This approach is helpful for people who want understanding, validation, and a collaborator to sort through life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses short-term exercises and practical strategies to change unhelpful thinking and build healthier habits. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and patterns that interfere with daily life.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process and happens together. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaborative process can change over time as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual connection helps. Phone sessions are an option when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is preferred. Live chat and text-based messaging can be used for shorter check-ins, daily support, or when writing feels easier. These formats make it simpler to fit sessions into busy lives and to continue care across different situations.
