About Marni
Marni believes clients are the experts on their own stories and that each person already holds strengths that can be used to meet life’s difficulties. Her approach emphasizes collaboration, helping clients identify and build on those strengths while developing practical skills to manage emotions and navigate relationship patterns. She also has special training in working with writers and artists, offering tailored support for creative professionals facing blocks, self-doubt, or career shifts.
Beginning therapy can require courage, and Marni acknowledges and validates that step. She focuses on helping clients find clarity, improve communication, and cultivate resilience so they can move toward goals such as improved self-esteem, healthier relationships, and a clearer sense of purpose.
Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Support

She also provides attachment-focused work for relationship concerns and abandonment issues, helping clients understand relational patterns and develop healthier ways of connecting. In addition, Marni integrates coaching-oriented strategies for life transitions and motivation, supporting clients to set goals, clarify values, and take actionable steps toward change.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Marni works collaboratively with clients to determine which techniques fit best based on their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. Together they assess progress and adjust methods as needed to support meaningful change.
Online therapy with Marni is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility.
