About Marianne
Marianne Williams is a licensed professional clinical counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship struggles, low self-esteem, and depression. She also works with clients dealing with intimacy concerns, anger, career stress, bipolar disorder, life transitions, and compassion fatigue. Marianne presents herself as a practical guide who believes clients know their own stories and strengths. She acknowledges the courage it takes to begin therapy and offers steady support for that first step.
With 14 years of experience and a Kentucky LPCC credential, Marianne combines several counseling approaches to meet everyday needs. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take meaningful action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is part of her toolkit for where thoughts and behaviors get in the way. Mindfulness and client-centered techniques shape sessions so people feel heard and learn simple ways to manage symptoms.
Sessions focus on clear goals and real-life changes. Marianne helps clients build practical skills for managing cravings, mood swings, anxiety, or work stress. She also addresses communication and commitment concerns in relationships and supports people through separation and grief.
Her style is collaborative and direct. Marianne listens first, then offers tools tailored to each person’s situation. Over time she helps clients track progress and adjust strategies so therapy fits daily life.
If you want help sorting through financial stress tied to other life problems, mention money and financial issues when you reach out so the conversation can start there.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify what matters most, and take small steps that align with their values. It can be useful for anxiety, life transitions, and managing urges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete exercises to change patterns that fuel depression or anxiety.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Marianne will explore your goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together you can try different techniques and choose what fits your needs and lifestyle.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the specific formats available before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when a quick touchpoint helps, and reduce travel time so therapy can work around work or caregiving duties. Talk with the therapist about how to adapt exercises and homework for an online setting and what to expect from remote sessions.
