Hello, my name is Marie St. Louis. I have spent most of my life helping people be the best versions of themselves, in one capacity or another. As a licensed counselor, I have several years of professional experience helping adults successfully navigate a variety of mental health challenges (e.g., anxiety, depression, trauma, substance abuse, addiction, loss, relationship conflicts, anger, and other life-controlling issues). I collaborate with clients to develop treatment goals, and explore practical and effective coping strategies to help achieve these goals. This leads to a more robust life that reflects the client's core values.

Life can be difficult at times. Relationship problems, issues at work, financial or parenting concerns, or feeling stuck or dissatisfied with our life circumstances, all can contribute to depression, anxiety or self-medicating and substance abuse. Whether it is getting rid of your fear, understanding why you are so sad, changing patterns of repeated painful relationships, or eliminatining self-destructive behaviors, the happiness you want and deserve is actually within your control. My approach is solution oriented. My style is collaborative. Patients like the fact that I do more than just listen. I raise questions, get them thinking, make suggestions, and engage actively with clients.

In the Buddhist tradition it is noted: "all that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think we become". This quote reflects my psychological approach to the problems people bring to me. My approach is as pragmatic as it is philosophical, as caring as it is confrontative and as serious as it is humorous. This may sound contradictory but life is not linear and therapy is a microcosm of life. The relationship that develops between a therapist and the client is the heart of the engine of change that defines therapy.

Our primary goal in working together is guiding you toward a more happy, meaningful and fulfilling life. From work, to marriage, to social relationships, and raising children, you will learn effective emotion coaching skills that you will be able to apply across all areas of your life. My overarching approach includes chasing the good life not just looking at what's not working. Together we will increase positive emotions, engagement, meaning, and relationships in your life. I believe that good practice is based in scientifically supported interventions.

Given my certifications in the Gottman method and Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) I am trained in helping couples build and rebuild friendship and intimacy, manage conflict better and create increased shared meaning. Research indicates that secure attachment and emotionally fulfilling relationships are integral components of mental and physical health, and that emotionally focused interventions have the power to establish and recreate supportive bonds among individuals. I am therefore dedicated to the understanding of individual health and dysfunction in the context of relationship with others and the enhancement of couple and family

Whether you are feeling overwhelmed by internal feelings or external events, or need to respond to unexpected changes in your life, I will work with you to help you meet life's challenges. My practice focuses on the treatment of depression & anxiety; stress & PTSD; trauma & addiction recovery, as well as family & relationship issues.

My practice is to assist clients in finding the root issues and bringing it to surface to allow the client to see other sides of the situation to make a healthier choice for them. I work with clients to understand all parts of them and accept themselves. My practice is a judgement-free environment as this will provide clients with a safe place to be honest and not afraid to expose who they are. I use humor to help clients feel at ease and directness to provide clear responses to aid in allowing clients to go deep within their issues.

The best approach to treatment is a personalized care where all of my clients have the ability to create their own course of treatment. I have multiple years’ experience providing individualized, solution focused therapy. I have worked with children as young as 5 and adults to age 70. Success with both individual and family treatment comes naturally. After meeting with me, you will walk away with the knowledge of how to improve your life. You will understand what treatment will look like, clear goals will be created, and a solid foundation on what to expect moving forward.

Life can present challenges and difficulties working through a variety of transitions, decisions, relationships and traumas. Anxiety and depression is more prevalent now than ever. Whether it is a pattern of difficult relationships, self doubt and low self esteem, self medicating or a dissatisfaction with life circumstances, change and healing is possible. I believe that therapy is a collaborative experience and I work with each client to find a style that works best for them. I do more than just listen. I make observations, offer feedback and engage actively in sessions.

If I were to win the lottery today, my commitment to being a therapist would remain unwavering. For me, it's not just a profession; it's my passion and calling. As Charles R.

Life can be filled with challenging moments, situations and relationships. Such encounters can cause depression, anxiety and isolation.

I am trained in psychoanalytic psychotherapy, motivational interviewing, and multiple behavioral therapies.
