Steven Marshall, LPC

Steven Marshall is a licensed counselor who combines formal training and practical experience to support people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, relationship struggles, and life transitions. He earned a master’s degree in counseling from Louisiana Tech in 2017 and brings eight years working in the helping profession to his practice. As an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor - he draws from an integrative approach that blends person-centered care with cognitive-behavioral strategies to meet each person where they are.

His person-centered orientation emphasizes respect and unconditional positive regard while cognitive-behavioral work explores patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to identify practical pathways forward. He has specialized training in trauma, anxiety, depression, and domestic violence, and he is certified in approaches such as EMDR and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. Steven works with individuals, couples, families, and groups, offering flexible work across a wide range of concerns including ADHD, addictions, grief, bipolar disorder, parenting challenges, sleep difficulties, self-esteem, compassion fatigue, and relationship issues.

Steven sees clients of many ages and backgrounds; the only exception is that he does not provide individual therapy to children under five years of age. He integrates evidence-informed techniques with a warm, collaborative stance and aims to tailor care to each person’s goals and circumstances.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Steven Marshall integrates several evidence-informed methods into his online practice to address trauma, mood concerns, and relationship patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify and shift unhelpful thought and behavior patterns so clients can develop practical coping skills for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy, or EFT, focuses on exploring emotions and attachment patterns to strengthen relationships and improve communication between partners and family members. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, is used to process traumatic memories and reduce their ongoing emotional impact when trauma is a central concern.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Steven works collaboratively with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and then adapts methods over time so therapy fits the individual rather than forcing a single model. Licensed professionals may combine techniques when appropriate to reach meaningful progress.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility for scheduling and access. Sessions can take place by video call or phone, and shorter or more frequent check-ins are possible through live chat or text-based messaging. This range of options makes it easier to maintain continuity of care around work, family, and other commitments while pursuing therapy goals.
