Background and approach
Everyday problems like money worries, communication breakdowns, and questions about life purpose are part of her practice. In sessions she creates a calm, nonjudgmental space for people to talk through their thoughts and feelings. Conversations focus on figuring out concrete steps that fit each person’s life.
She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help with coping, motivation, and adjustment to change. Marite works with adults and young adults who want practical strategies and steady emotional support. Her approach is direct but compassionate, aimed at building confidence and improving daily functioning.
People often come with short-term concerns or longer-standing stressors. Her background in medical settings adds experience supporting those facing illness and caregiving roles. As an LCSW - licensed clinical social worker - she combines clinical knowledge with a down-to-earth style to help people find workable solutions and a clearer sense of direction.
Evidence-based approaches and online care
Marite draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach emphasizes identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new ways of thinking to reduce anxiety and improve mood. This method helps people notice thinking habits that fuel worry and replace them with more balanced perspectives.Another approach centers on building coping skills and routines to manage stress and life transitions. It involves small, doable steps like problem-solving, activity planning, and practicing relaxation or grounding techniques. This work is useful for people facing caregiver strain, health challenges, or big changes in work or relationships.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Marite works with clients to choose techniques that match their goals, preferences, and daily realities. She adapts strategies over time and checks in to make sure the work feels relevant and doable.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls allow fuller conversation and nonverbal cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can suit quick check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make therapy more flexible for work schedules, caregiving duties, and travel.
