About Marie
Marie Hanby is a licensed professional counselor in Wisconsin with four years of clinical experience. She focuses on work and wellbeing concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and coping with life changes. Marie approaches sessions with a respectful, down-to-earth style that centers the client's perspective and strengths.
She believes people know their own stories best and brings a listening stance that helps them build on what already works. In sessions she helps people name problems, practice new ways of responding, and set small goals that fit daily life. The tone is practical and supportive rather than clinical or abstract.
Marie uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and she uses client-centered techniques to create a collaborative conversation. Her work includes supporting people dealing with trauma and abuse, sexual assault, domestic violence, and issues that follow major life disruptions like divorce or disaster.
She also has experience with caregiver stress, first responder issues, workplace problems, loneliness, and challenges around self-worth and relationships. Sessions focus on what matters to the individual and on realistic steps toward improved wellbeing.
Marie works in Wisconsin and conducts sessions in English. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step help connect people to her services and build a plan that fits their goals and daily routines.
How these approaches look in online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and feelings and focus on actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, grief, and stress by breaking problems into manageable steps and practicing small behavior changes. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and collaboration so the person feels heard and can shape the work around what matters to them.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Marie will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaboration means plans are adjusted over time to match changing needs and real-life demands.
Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday or a hectic schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can use these appointments to practice skills between sessions and to troubleshoot workplace or caregiving challenges in real time.
