About Marion
Marion Saulque is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Washington. She moved into counseling after a career as an automotive mechanic and brings three years of professional experience supporting people facing anxiety, depression, addictions, bipolar disorder, grief, and trauma. Marion writes plainly and uses a direct, down-to-earth approach in sessions.
She often draws on client-centered work to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space. Marion also uses cognitive behavioral techniques and elements of dialectical behavior therapy to teach practical skills.
How Marion works
She blends these with mindfulness and trauma-focused methods when the situation calls for it. Marion has worked with people affected by domestic violence and with those in substance use treatment programs. Those roles shaped her understanding of survival, safety, and the small steps that lead to bigger change.
She brings this experience to conversations about parenting, relationships, intimacy, and sexuality. Her style is straightforward and occasionally lighthearted. Marion offers two practical skills per week and encourages practice between sessions so tools can start to feel useful in daily life.
She identifies as Native American and says cultural awareness and respect are important to her work. Clients can expect a collaborative process where Marion helps name goals, practices skills in session, and adapts approaches to match each person’s needs. She provides services in English and offers multiple online formats to fit different schedules.

Online support options
How these approaches translate to online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building understanding. Online sessions using this approach give people a chance to set the pace, talk about what matters most, and shape goals with the therapist's support.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical tools to change patterns. In online sessions CBT often includes specific homework tasks and short skill practice between meetings to reinforce what was learned.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds structured skills for coping with intense emotions and improving relationships. Online DBT-style sessions can teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication skills in a step-by-step way.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marion will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, preferences, and what feels helpful. That planning is flexible and can change as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers a range of ways to connect: video calls for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions when bandwidth or camera use is difficult, live chat for brief check-ins, and text-based messaging for ongoing support. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, parenting, or other commitments while still practicing the skills learned in therapy.
