About Marianne

Marianne Falk is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Ohio who blends evidence-informed methods to help adults navigate stress, mood concerns, and life transitions. She draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside client-centered principles to tailor support that reflects each person’s experience and goals.

Background and approach

Her practice emphasizes collaboration, inviting clients to be active partners in shaping treatment while she contributes therapeutic skills and clinical perspective. With nine years of clinical experience, Marianne has provided care across community mental health settings and inpatient behavioral health, offering both individual and group counseling as well as online therapy.

She has worked closely with psychiatrists when medication is part of a care plan and supports people through issues such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma, addictions, relationship and family challenges, caregiving stress, and life purpose concerns. Her style is described as warm and nonjudgmental, creating space for clients to explore practical coping strategies and personal insight.

Marianne offers services in English and provides sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Applying CBT and Client-Centered Care Online

Marianne uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical strategies for managing symptoms like anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-centered therapy complements this work by emphasizing empathy, active listening, and collaboration so clients feel heard and respected as they set goals.

Deciding on an approach is a collaborative process. Marianne works with each person to determine which combination of techniques best fits their needs, preferences, and goals, adjusting the plan over time based on progress and feedback.

Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging allows for flexibility in how people engage in therapy. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, continue work during life transitions, and access consistent support when in-person options are limited. Licensed professionals can use these tools to provide ongoing, skills-focused therapy while adapting to each client’s circumstances.
