About Marianne

Marianne Terrebonne is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Louisiana with 40 years of experience. She works with adults on common concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, parenting, relationship problems, addiction, and career questions. Marianne also lists family of origin issues and attachment concerns among her focus areas.

Her background includes long experience providing assessment, counseling, and treatment planning in school-related settings. For 13 years she served as a school-based liaison with Juvenile Diversion Services alongside the Office of the District Attorney. That work sharpened her practical, problem-solving approach to everyday challenges.

In sessions she uses approaches drawn from attachment-based work, client-centered therapy, and cognitive behavior tools. That means conversations often look at how early relationships shape current patterns, reflect on current feelings and goals, and practice skills to change unhelpful thinking or behavior.

Clients can expect straightforward, task-focused conversations that aim to clarify problems and find manageable steps forward. Marianne integrates elements of emotion-focused and dialectical behavior approaches when helpful, while keeping the discussion oriented to real-life concerns.

Her practice also addresses areas like grief, midlife transitions, parenting strains, compassion fatigue, and issues related to aging. She offers services in English and accepts international clients; practical session options should be confirmed before booking.

How Marianne’s approaches translate to online work

Marianne draws on attachment-based work to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. That approach typically focuses on feelings, connection, and how past roles influence present behavior. Client-centered methods prioritize the client’s perspective, using reflective conversation to help people make sense of their concerns and set goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) adds practical steps and skill-building to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

Deciding which approach fits best is part of the process. Marianne will collaborate with the client to identify goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on what works. The emphasis is on clear, doable steps and regular check-ins about progress.

The therapist’s biography does not specify session formats here, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand it, and remove the need to travel to an appointment. These practical benefits often help people maintain consistency while they work on family of origin patterns, parenting challenges, stress, or relationship issues.
