About Mari
Mari Fullmer is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 14 years of professional experience who supports adults and young adults facing stress, anxiety, grief, relationship struggles, and shifts in self-esteem.
Background and approach
She brings a holistic lens to therapy, attending to emotional, relational, and meaning-oriented aspects of clients' lives while offering practical skills to increase confidence, motivation, and day-to-day coping. Her style blends insight with action: Mari centers the client's own expertise about their story and works collaboratively to uncover strengths that can be used to meet current challenges.
She integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, mindfulness practices, and attachment-informed perspectives to help clients cultivate steadiness, clearer communication, and a stronger sense of purpose. Sessions emphasize skill-building alongside reflective work so clients can apply new tools between meetings.
Mari tends to those navigating caregiver stress, body image and self-love concerns, pregnancy and childbirth transitions, and life-purpose questions, among other focus areas. Located in California and licensed to practice in both California and Michigan, she frames therapy as an allyship aimed at helping people feel more grounded, peaceful, and empowered in their relationships and daily life.
Approach-Driven Online Therapy and Practical Support
Online work with Mari often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to provide both concrete tools and values-guided change. CBT focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to distress and teaches practical strategies to shift those patterns, which can help with anxiety, stress, and self-esteem concerns. ACT concentrates on clarifying personal values and building willingness to accept uncomfortable thoughts and feelings while taking meaningful action toward what matters most.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their goals, preferences, and presenting issues. That collaborative exploration may blend techniques and evolve over time as needs change.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility for people juggling work, caregiving, or other commitments. These options allow clients to engage in ongoing skill practice and reflective work from locations that fit their schedule while maintaining continuity of care with licensed professionals.
