About Marie

Marie Fors is a licensed marriage and family therapist with ten years of experience. She offers a warm, compassionate approach and focuses on practical steps people can use day to day. Her style is interactive and collaborative, helping clients set realistic goals and try small changes that add up over time.

Marie often helps people managing stress, anxiety, and depression. She also works with concerns around eating and food-related issues, self-esteem, career decisions, and compassion fatigue.

Background and approach

ADHD appears among her focus areas and she brings practical strategies to help with attention and organization challenges. Her sessions aim to be straightforward and goal oriented. She leans on techniques that encourage clear problem solving while listening for each person’s priorities.

Conversations are shaped to fit the person’s life, not a rigid protocol. Marie blends client-centered listening with tools from cognitive behavioral methods and solution-focused work. She may use motivational interviewing to help people find inner reasons for change and to build commitment.

The result is a mix of support, feedback, and small-action steps to try between sessions. Marie practices in Florida and communicates in English. She encourages people who are ready to explore change to take the first step and begin a collaborative process toward clearer choices and better daily routines.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person first. The therapist follows the client’s pace, reflects what matters most, and helps people clarify their own goals and values.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It uses straightforward tools to test thoughts, build new habits, and reduce symptoms of anxiety or low mood. CBT is often useful for stress, anxiety, depression, and some eating concerns.

Marie will work with the client to decide which approach fits best. She treats finding the right method as a collaborative process. Together they review goals, try techniques, and adjust plans based on what helps most.

Online formats she uses include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people see and interact in real time for fuller conversations. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick reflections, check-ins between sessions, or when writing feels easier than talking. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
