About Marie
Marie Pierre-Canel is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with eight years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, family issues, parenting challenges, and reactions to trauma and abuse. She also supports those coping with mood concerns like depression and bipolar, and people managing anger, self-esteem, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.
She uses straightforward, conversation-based sessions. People talk through what is happening, identify patterns, and try practical ways to change daily routines. Sessions focus on communication habits, attachment patterns, and skills that reduce overwhelm. The aim is clearer thinking and easier choices, not quick fixes.
Marie draws on client-centered methods to keep sessions responsive to what each person brings. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot thought and behavior cycles that keep problems going. Narrative and motivational approaches help people reframe their story and set realistic goals.
Her multilingual skills include English, Spanish, French, and Haitian Creole, which she uses to connect with a range of cultural backgrounds. She notes blended family issues among her focus areas and offers help sorting stepfamily roles, co-parenting tensions, and loyalty conflicts without taking sides.
Practical concerns like caregiver stress, communication problems, and commitment worries are part of her day-to-day work. To begin, readers are asked to follow the site’s matching steps to choose a session and schedule a first meeting. Fees vary by location and use a cancellable subscription model.
How Marie’s approaches are used in online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to what each person brings. It lets sessions follow the issues that feel most urgent and supports clearer decision making about family roles and relationships.Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at the thoughts and routines that keep a problem going. In practice this means identifying unhelpful thinking, trying small behavioral experiments, and building new habits to reduce anxiety or anger.
She also uses existential ideas to help people face life changes and find practical meaning in new household arrangements. These approaches suit questions about commitment, role shifts, and identity when households blend.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. That conversation guides which methods are used and how sessions are paced.
Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the profile does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow quieter check-ins without travel, and let people keep momentum between appointments. Licensed professionals can adapt session length and focus to match a client’s schedule and practical needs.
