About Marie
Marie Foley is a licensed mental health counselor with 18 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and the strain that comes with life changes. Parents who are juggling responsibilities can find practical help for parenting concerns and for managing ADHD symptoms in daily life.
She keeps sessions straightforward and approachable. Conversations focus on what is happening now and on small steps that make life easier.
Background and approach
Marie works to make a space where people can speak without feeling judged or rushed. Her background includes extensive clinical experience in Massachusetts over nearly two decades. That work has included supporting people through grief, trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, panic attacks, and social anxiety.
She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood disorders and panic symptoms. Clients can expect a collaborative style. Marie listens first, then helps set realistic goals and practical strategies.
She encourages homework between sessions so progress continues outside the appointment time. Sessions are offered in English and are available by several online formats. People interested in getting started follow a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on the therapist's availability.
The process is meant to be simple for busy parents and individuals seeking change.

Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care
Marie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical work. One common method helps people break down anxiety and panic into manageable parts so they can practice coping steps in real situations and reduce avoidance. Another approach focuses on mood regulation and problem solving, offering short exercises and behavioral changes that address depression and low motivation.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your concerns, review goals, and try methods that fit your needs and preferences. Together you can adjust techniques over time to find what makes the most difference for daily life and parenting demands.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a quick check-in, and text messaging supports ongoing brief contact between meetings. These options aim to make care easier to fit into family life, work breaks, and busy routines.
