About Marianne
Marianne Falk is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Ohio with nine years of clinical experience. She works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting challenges, and she lists guilt and shame among her focus areas.
She blends Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in practical ways. Sessions tend to focus on clear problems and everyday changes clients can try between meetings. Marianne describes therapy as a team effort where the client’s life knowledge guides the work.
Her background includes roles in community mental health and inpatient behavioral health. She has provided individual and group counseling and has experience collaborating with psychiatrists on medication plans when that was appropriate. This gives her familiarity with complex mood disorders and long-term mental health needs.
In the room, Marianne listens without judgment and offers ideas grounded in CBT and client-centered practice. That can mean noticing patterns of thought, testing new behaviors, or using the client’s values to guide decisions. She also supports people coping with life transitions, grief, addictions, and family of origin issues.
People who reach out often want practical ways to manage strong feelings like shame or persistent guilt. Marianne works with each person to set small, achievable steps and to check what actually fits into daily life. She asks clients to try things between sessions and then reflects on what helps and what needs adjusting.
How Marianne applies client-centered and CBT approaches online
Marianne draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening carefully and following the client’s lead. This approach helps when someone needs a nonjudgmental space to talk through guilt, family problems, or confusion about next steps.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques that look at thought patterns and behaviors. CBT offers concrete tools for managing anxiety, mood problems, and shame by testing unhelpful beliefs and practicing small changes between sessions.
Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Marianne will discuss how these approaches match a person’s goals and preferences and then shape sessions together based on what feels most useful.

In general, working with a licensed professional online can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare, or appointments. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid camera use if someone prefers audio only. These practical benefits often help people keep therapy consistent while juggling daily responsibilities.
