You Don’t Have to Be “Fine” All the Time
Hi,
I'm Marian and I can help.
I work with busy and motivated professionals like you to identify unhelpful patterns and redirect biased self-talk so that you can go back to living life.
​
I will help you to build skills to break down unrealistic expectations and assist you in learning to live life on your own terms without guilt. I am passionate about helping my clients overcome challenges and embrace their resilient selves.
​
Let me help you slow down and stop running on empty.
You Deserve to Give Yourself What You Need
I help stressed-out high achievers silence their inner critic. Despite being highly motivated, smart, driven, and hardworking, my clients struggle as you do and often find themselves feeling chronically unhappy and emotionally drained. They feel pulled too much in every direction and are under constant pressure to achieve more, be more, and prove themselves.
If you struggle with self-criticism, anxiety, and people-pleasing you deserve to put yourself first. Let's work together to assist you in getting unstuck and finding the courage to embrace being imperfect.

FAQs
What type of counseling do you offer?
I offer individual therapy for adults, along with art therapy and group experiences designed for high-achieving individuals navigating anxiety, perfectionism, and self-doubt.
​
My work focuses on helping you step out of constant overthinking, quiet your inner critic, and feel more grounded and confident in your daily life.
​
If you're not sure whether this is exactly what you need, you don't have to have it all figured out. I'm happy to talk through what's going on and help you determine if this feels like the right fit.
How long will I need to be in counseling?
The length of counseling looks different for everyone and depends on your goals, what you're navigating, and how you want to grow. Some clients come for short-term support around a specific challenge, while others choose to stay longer to work through deeper patterns and create lasting change.
​
We'll work collaboratively to create a plan that feels supportive, realistic, and aligned with what you need.
​
Throughout our work together, we'll regularly check in on your progress to make sure therapy continues to feel helpful and meaningful for you.
What do we talk about in the free phone consultation?
The free consultation is a simple, low-pressure way to explore whether therapy feels like the right next step for you.
​
We'll talk briefly about what's been weighing on you and what you're hoping might feel different in your life. You don't need to have the "perfect" way to explain it. I'll guide the conversation with a few questions to make it easy.
​
I'll also walk you through what working together looks like, answer any questions you have, and help you get a feel for my approach so you can decide it it feels like a good fit.
​
There's no commitment required.
How do I know if your therapy practice is a fit for me?
Finding the right therapist is an important part of the process, and it’s completely okay to take your time with that decision.
​
I recommend starting with a free consultation so we can get a sense of what’s been bringing you to therapy and what you’re hoping to get out of it. I’ll share how I work, and you’ll have the opportunity to ask any questions so you can feel informed and comfortable moving forward.
​
My goal is for you to feel supported, understood, and confident in your decision, whether that’s working together or continuing your search. If it doesn’t feel like the right fit, that’s absolutely okay. This process is about finding the therapist who aligns best with you.
What can I expect in the first session?
Your first session is a chance for us to get to know each other in a comfortable, supportive space. We'll talk about what's been bringing you to therapy, what you've been experiencing, and what you'd like to feel differently moving forward.
​
I'll guide the conversation with thoughtful questions while also giving you space to share at your own pace. We'll also review how I work, answer any questions you may have, and begin identifying goals that feel meaningful and realistic for you.
​
By the end of the session, you'll have a clearer sense of what working together could look like and a plan for moving forward in a way that feels supportive and aligned with your needs.
How much do sessions cost?
Sessions are 50 minutes and $200 per session, with payment due at the time of service.
​
If you've been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or caught in patterns of overthinking or perfectionism, therapy can be a powerful step toward real change. Many clients begin to notice shifts in how they think, feel, and respond within the first few sessions.
​
You may also be eligible for partial reimbursement through your out-of-network benefits.
​
If you're ready to get started, I invite you to reach out or schedule a consultation to see if we're a good fit.
