Marie Demerville, LMHC

LMHC in Florida with six years of experience, Marie Demerville helps people facing stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, anger, depression, and ADHD. She works with individuals who want practical strategies for everyday problems and clearer ways to handle emotions and behavior.

Marie uses approaches that focus on what people do and how they relate to thoughts and feelings. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to introduce concrete skills. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools to improve communication and emotional regulation.

In sessions she talks through real situations and practices small experiments people can try between meetings. That might look like noticing what matters most, testing a new way to respond to stress, or learning a short breathing or grounding exercise to reduce panic symptoms. She helps people break down parenting or attention challenges into clear steps they can work on at home.

Her background includes clinical work with trauma, substance use, attachment issues, and neurodevelopmental differences such as autism and Asperger syndrome. She has experience addressing panic disorder, phobias, hoarding, and problems with impulse control and isolation.

Marie offers faith-informed, culturally aware care and can conduct sessions in English and Haitian Creole. She practices in Florida as an LMHC and combines skills-based methods with a focus on communication and problem solving.

To start, she asks people to identify concrete goals and then tests which strategies help most. Sessions aim to be practical, direct, and focused on daily life changes rather than abstract theory.
