About Marnie
I believe healing happens in a space where you don’t have to “be fine.” My approach to counseling is to create an environment of unconditional acceptance without judgment, one where you can show up exactly as you are. Every person is unique, and it’s my responsibility to earn your trust. With trust, we can uncover the hope, clarity, and strength needed to move toward your personal goals. I walk alongside you while you take ownership of your growth, offering steady support every step of the way.
My therapeutic style is integrative and tailored to your specific needs. I draw from psychodynamic therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and cognitive-behavioral therapy, while thoughtfully incorporating EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), somatic therapy, and Internal Family Systems (IFS) when helpful. I believe our present reactions often make perfect sense in light of our past experiences. When we understand our patterns and core beliefs and gently heal what is unresolved, we gain the freedom to show up differently today.
I am an EMDR-certified therapist and a certified chemical dependency counselor, and I have extensive experience supporting individuals through trauma, anxiety, and addiction. Alongside traditional psychotherapy, I can integrate holistic healing modalities as clients feel comfortable, such as Reiki, mindfulness, and sound healing, to support the mind, body, and nervous system as a whole.
My formal training includes a master’s degree in counseling from George Fox University in Oregon and a Bachelor of Science in Quantitative Business Analysis/Computer Science from Louisiana State University. I am licensed in Oregon, Texas, and Georgia, and I continue to pursue advanced training that deepens my ability to serve clients with attunement and care.
No matter where you find yourself, overwhelmed, rebuilding, or simply curious about what healing might look like—I’m here to offer a grounded, compassionate space for your journey.
