About Rieke
Rieke Herrmann Marzouki is a licensed marriage and family therapist who brings a practical, down-to-earth approach to parenting and relationship concerns. She speaks English and German and works from Hawaii. Her style centers on listening first and helping each person find the next useful step.
Rieke uses approaches that focus on how people connect and react to stress. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at bonds and patterns. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Background and approach
These methods are blended to match what a client needs in the moment. Her background includes five years as an LMFT and more than a decade supporting people around relationship strain, family conflict, trauma and anger. She frames the client as the expert in their life and aims to build on existing strengths.
Sessions are straightforward and focused on practical change as well as understanding feelings. Parents who feel overwhelmed or stuck often come for help with stress, parenting challenges, grief, anxiety, or changes in mood. Rieke talks through what is happening now and works with clients to try small, manageable shifts.
The work can include skill practice, communication coaching, and identifying patterns that keep problems repeating. Rieke emphasizes a supportive, collaborative process. She acknowledges that reaching out takes courage and partners with people to set realistic goals and try new ways of coping.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit family life
Rieke commonly uses attachment-based approaches and cognitive behavioral therapy to guide online work. Attachment-based work looks at how early and current relationships shape reactions and connection; it helps people notice patterns in how they relate to partners and children. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, improve mood, or change reactive parenting responses.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Rieke collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals and daily realities. She listens to what feels most urgent and adapts techniques so they are doable between sessions, whether practicing a new conversation or trying a brief thought record.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy family schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a longer session is needed. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, homework prompts, or immediate coaching between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into school runs, work breaks, or unpredictable days.
