About me

I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor for over eight years. In my career, I have had the opportunity to serve people of all backgrounds and with a variety of concerns. I have helped individuals with depression and anxiety, as well as OCD, self-harming issues, BFRBs, and relationship challenges. In addition, I have supported clients who are grieving the loss of a loved one, and those who have suffered trauma.
I strive to be a therapist who understands, supports, and respects my clients' experiences. I work to always build upon my knowledge base so that I can best help each person with their unique concerns. I have experience using Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Internal Family Systems approach, and others.
I truly admire the strength it takes to reach out for help. It has been said that asking for help is not giving up rather it is refusing to give up. Allow me to help you through the challenges you face so you can feel supported and empowered.
I look forward to meeting and working with you!

She has helped me so much. I have come so far in learning how to care for my mental health in between sessions, how to better calm myself. I feel more confident, and happy.

Written on Nov 14, 2022 after therapy with Marilee for 5 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, eating disorders, sleeping disorders, parenting issues, self esteem, coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, and adhd

Marilee has been extremely helpful in the short time I have worked with her, speaking to her is like speaking to a concerned friend not a therapist. She has also provided me with many tools that I am able to use daily in my life rather than just talking and having nothing to learn and take away to grow. I highly recommend Marilee if you’d like a down to earth, highly knowledgeable therapist!
