About Marie
Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 8 years of experience. Marie Pierre-Canel focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, mood disorders such as depression and bipolar, and ADHD. She practices in English, Spanish, French, and Haitian Creole and accepts international clients.
Marie uses practical talk therapy rooted in Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. She works with people on communication problems, anger, self-esteem, and coping with life changes by breaking problems into manageable steps.
Her approach also draws on Narrative Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. That means she helps people retell their experiences to find different meanings and builds motivation for change through clear, collaborative goals. Existential ideas inform discussions about values, responsibility, and what matters most in daily life.
Marie pays attention to attachment issues, abandonment concerns, and blended family dynamics. She addresses caregiver stress, body image, isolation, and commitment or control issues with straightforward strategies people can use between sessions. The work includes skills practice, reflective conversation, and planning for specific situations.
She frames therapy as a practical process rather than labels. Sessions often involve identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing behavioral changes, and writing or speaking about important life events to change their impact. To start, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How core therapy methods are used in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s perspective and uses listening and reflection to help them clarify what matters. This approach helps people who are sorting out relationships, identity, or caregiving roles by making space to speak and be heard.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and tests small behavioral changes. It is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and building coping strategies that can be practiced between sessions.
Narrative Therapy helps people retell and reframe their life stories so past events have less control over present choices. It supports work on attachment issues, abandonment, and patterns that repeat in relationships.
Choosing an approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods best match goals, needs, and preferences. That plan can change as progress is made and new priorities arise.
Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Ask about language options and any scheduling details when arranging the first appointment.
