About Us

I am focused on the mental and emotional needs of my potential clients. I am driven to assist in the areas of Grief and Loss and Addictions Counseling. I am compelled to help individuals to become aware of how it all started, how it progressed and the steps it takes to move toward change.

 

Making positive change opens the doors to new horizons. I use an array of various therapies such as music and meditation to assist individuals to become aware of their issues and help them take the necessary steps towards a peaceful and serene place. Marion's Counseling Services is committed to serving the needs of you and your family. Using universal principles, we offer practical tools for leading a joyous, abundant and peaceful life. We aspire to strengthen each person's confidence and joy at every point in their life and encourage personal growth.

Are you or your child struggling with unsettled or uncertain emotions? Do you feel stressed, overwhelmed, anxious, or even confused about your life or behaviors? Look no further than here! As a goal-oriented therapist, I help my clients thrive by providing emotional support, resources, and a judgement free space to speak freely about the trials and tribulations impacting their wellbeing. I believe that all behaviors are unoriginal and rooted in something that we have experienced and in turn learned. When we connect negative behaviors to their root cause, we become clearer, lighter, and more confident in reaching life's goals.

 

​​I specialize in meeting my clients where they are, in order to effectively discuss and resolve their troubles. I believe my clients have the power to create their own success story, but sometimes need a little guidance when they get stuck. My goal is to help my clients unveil the truth to their behaviors and limitations by connecting the past to the present.

​

As a victim advocate, I have dealt with many people in their most difficult times and when they need the most support and help. I am a listener, and believer in your own goals. There is no shame in sharing, the more we share, the more similar we find ourselves to be with one another.
