About Marianne
Marianne Falk is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) based in Ohio who uses client-centered and cognitive behavioral approaches. She focuses on meeting people where they are and building a practical plan together. Her style is warm and nonjudgmental.
She keeps sessions straightforward and focused on the issues you bring. With nine years of experience, Marianne has worked in community mental health and inpatient behavioral health settings. She has provided both individual and group counseling and has collaborated with psychiatrists when medication is part of care.
Background and approach
That background gives her experience supporting people with mood disorders, anxiety, and addiction concerns. Marianne often helps people manage strong emotions like anger and grief. She also supports those dealing with stress, depression, life transitions, caregiver strain, and relationship or family problems.
Parenting challenges, communication breakdowns, and feelings of emptiness or isolation are also common topics in her work. In sessions she uses client-centered methods to listen and reflect what matters most to the person. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify patterns of thinking and try practical skills that change daily habits.
Together the therapist and client set small, realistic goals and test what helps in everyday life. People typically find her approach collaborative and focused on real-world change. Marianne aims to provide a steady place to talk through problems, build coping skills, and make manageable steps toward clearer thinking and calmer responses.

How client-centered and CBT tools work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on active listening, empathy, and following what matters most to the person. In this approach the therapist reflects back thoughts and feelings and helps clients feel understood, which can ease intense emotions and open a path to change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to change unhelpful thinking and develop coping skills for anxiety, anger, depression, and stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Marianne will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative process may blend client-centered listening with CBT skill-building depending on what the person needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people use visual cues and a fuller conversation, while phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for brief updates, skill practice between sessions, or when typing feels easier than talking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep working on problems even when schedules are tight.
