Evidence-based techniques for online healing

Marianne uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques alongside a trauma-informed perspective to guide sessions. One common method focuses on skills for managing intense feelings and panic, teaching breathing, grounding, and short exercises to reduce overwhelm. Another strand emphasizes work on body image and eating-related concerns, helping people change unhelpful thoughts and build kinder habits toward their bodies and food. Finding the right approach is part of the process and happens together. Marianne will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. She collaborates to pick techniques that fit the client’s situation and adjusts them as progress is made. Because the biography did not list specific session formats, confirm available options before booking. Many people find that online therapy helps fit care into busy lives by removing travel time and making it easier to schedule around work or family commitments. Online sessions can also allow shorter check-ins when a full visit is not needed and reduce the need to rearrange a whole day for an appointment.
