About Marianne
Marianne Falk is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) based in Ohio who centers care on each client's lived experience. She offers straightforward, nonjudgmental support for stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, mood shifts, and life transitions. Her style is warm and practical, aimed at helping people make steady changes.
Marianne uses Client-Centered Therapy to build a respectful, collaborative space where the client’s priorities lead the work. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on concrete strategies people can try between meetings. She has nine years of experience working in community mental health and inpatient behavioral health settings. That background includes individual and group counseling and collaboration with psychiatrists when medications are part of care.
Marianne has supported people coping with chronic mental health conditions and those adjusting to life changes. Common concerns she addresses include depression, anxiety, addiction, grief, anger, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, postpartum depression, and caregiver stress. She also helps people dealing with communication problems, codependency, family of origin issues, and midlife or career transitions.
Sessions are offered in English and available online in multiple formats. Marianne aims to work at the client’s pace and to find practical steps that fit real life. She emphasizes collaboration so clients leave with tools they can use right away.

Approaches Marianne lists

How her approaches work in online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client’s lead. The therapist creates a respectful space where people name what matters and set goals together, which helps when sorting parenting worries, life changes, or feelings of isolation.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps spot patterns of thinking that keep problems going and then tests small behavior changes. This approach suits concerns like anxiety, depression, anger, and managing ADHD symptoms by teaching practical skills to try between sessions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Marianne collaborates with each person to decide what fits their needs and goals, and adjusts methods as progress is made. This keeps therapy responsive rather than fixed.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful when visual cues matter and sessions feel most like in-person meetings. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Chat and messaging work well for quick reflections, ongoing support, or for people who prefer written communication. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy days and different schedules.
