Marsha provided mental health counseling in prisons, ran anger management groups, supported dialysis patients, and worked with veterans and families in hospice care. She has also supported pregnant and postpartum women and people coping with chronic illness. Sessions emphasize realistic goals and skills people can use between meetings.
Marsha aims to help people notice what matters, build coping strategies, and try new behaviors. She focuses on clear, usable tools rather than jargon. People who choose her can expect a non-threatening environment where their concerns are heard.
Marsha invites collaboration and steady progress, and she encourages follow-through with simple action steps. If someone is looking for help with anger or life change, she offers steady guidance and practical techniques.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
The therapist uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people name their values and take small, meaningful actions toward them. ACT focuses on accepting difficult thoughts and staying connected to what matters, which can help with anger, anxiety, and life changes.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT offers concrete strategies for managing mood, sleep, and stress, and teaches skills people can practice between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. This is a team effort where goals and techniques are revisited as progress occurs.
