About Marie
Marie Cannon is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Nevada with 13 years of experience. She works with adults who are carrying heavy feelings such as guilt, shame, anxiety, depression, and stress. She also supports people dealing with addiction, anger, and low self-esteem.
Marie helps people talk through body image concerns, including issues that arise for those who live in larger bodies. She supports caregivers experiencing burnout and guides people facing life transitions like divorce and separation. She also addresses panic attacks, social anxiety, control issues, and problems with communication.
Her approach is straightforward and person-focused. Sessions involve listening, clarifying what matters to the client, and trying practical steps that fit day-to-day life. She aims to help clients notice patterns that keep them stuck and experiment with different responses.
Marie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood disorders and anxiety symptoms. She works with clients to build skills for managing intense emotions and to reframe harsh self-judgments that feed shame and guilt. The work often mixes skill practice with reflective conversation.
People can expect a direct but respectful style that focuses on concrete change and clearer choices. Marie encourages small, sustainable adjustments rather than big leaps. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session that looks at goals and next steps.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Marie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on changing unhelpful thinking and building emotion regulation skills. Cognitive approaches involve identifying and testing negative beliefs that drive guilt and shame, helping people practice kinder, more realistic self-talk. Skills-based techniques teach concrete tools for managing anxiety, panic symptoms, and intense anger, like paced breathing and step-by-step behavior changes.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marie will collaborate with clients to pick or adapt methods based on their needs, goals, and what feels manageable. Sessions begin by clarifying problems and priorities, then trying techniques and adjusting the plan together as progress or obstacles appear.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, squeeze in a shorter check-in, or avoid travel time. It can also reduce technical demands when a phone session is preferred over video. Licensed professionals and therapists commonly use remote work to help clients keep momentum without major schedule disruption.
