I believe the most effective therapists are those that are genuine, caring and always put their clients needs first. I have years of experience working with Addiction, Mental Health, and Families. I pride myself in being honest, trustworthy, patient, dedicated, compassionate, insightful, organized, personable, and optimistic. My desire to deeply understand problems, situations, and people led me to pursue a career as a Professional Counselor which I embrace to this day and take great pride in. Being a part of a person's transformation and helping them to become better versions of themselves is truly inspiring.

I have over 20 years of experience in the behavioral health field.

Accepting new clients now! I am known for my warmth, compassion, and encouragement. I believe that for therapy to be successful, we will need to work as a team. My areas of specialty include anxiety, stress management, relationship issues, and grief. I have experience in addiction recovery, grief counseling, tween self-empowerment, and reproductive issues. Prior to counseling, I was engaged in non-profit leadership which included speaking and coaching women and teens/young adults. In fact, it was the individuals I encountered during that season of life which inspired me to pursue professional counseling.

My style of being and interacting with others is a person-centered and humanistic approach. This involves non-judgmental support, exploration of experiences, and collaborating on support- navigating where you are in life and where you would like to be. This is not a linear journey, and my role is to be there for you along the way.

Life presents us with challenges that can feel overwhelming at times - loss, betrayal, illness, trauma, relationship issues, pain, depression, and unmet goals. All you need to overcome these challenges and meet your goals lies within you. Let me help you find your path to conquering, healing, and living your best life.

The behaviors and emotions of grief, loss, and trauma are complex. Healing in mind, body, and spirit can be accomplished through traditional and spiritual counseling as well as guided meditation, spiritual structure, and goal setting. When clients are experiencing an inability to move forward, find it difficult to come to terms with life, cannot balance emotions and spirit, are enduring high levels of anxiety and stress, and are recognizing that their energy levels and physical body strength are at risk, the counseling of Dr. Marshall, an experienced counselor who uses Judeo-Christian and Buddhist principles can help heal.

I enjoy working with children, adolescents, families, and adults (preschool-age 80+). I am fortunate to have helped individuals over the past 20+ years as they strive to overcome life's challenges and access life's joys. While a variety of therapy techniques that I am trained in can be of value, clients and I select the ones that they find to be most helpful to them personally. I primarily see clients who are experiencing depression, anxiety, divorce, school/work and family problems, ADHD, Autism, childhood issues, and processing past traumatic or stressful life events.

I have current openings! We often get advice like “Suck it up”, “Get over it already”, “It’s not that bad”. But, remember, you don’t have to suffer in silence or go it alone. Everyone experiences difficulties. But, sometimes life can feel overwhelming. We can be really hard on ourselves when we just can't get to feeling better, and I would love to help!

Hello! I strive to create a space that meets all of your needs.

Life can be complicated and it is not always easy to ask for help. Entering into counseling is a wonderful investment in yourself. As an integrative, holistic therapist and coach I provide safe support for you to learn to appreciate and fully experience yourself, your life, and your relationships. A holistic approach allows us to work together to help you move forward and overcome feelings of being stuck, overwhelmed, or "foggy-brained." We can utilize cognitive, mindfulness, nutritional, and other approaches individually tailored to your needs.

I have been most helpful with clients who have clear goals or specific issues they want to address. I can work with you in a brief, specific and time-limited ways to help faciliate problem-solving and behavioral changes as needed. I can also work with you long-term to address chronic or longer standing issues of past trauma, family conflict, or issues with self and identity. Most importantly, I work collaboratively to help you meet your own needs by matching the treatment modality and plan with your stated needs and learning/attachment style. I am direct and honest, but always with permission and gentleness. I respect and value all.
