Hi, I’m Marlee. I help people who feel stretched thin by anxiety, disordered eating, or family stress find steadier ground. I’ve worked with children, teens, and adults across schools, residential treatment, and group practice, so I meet you with real experience and without judgment. In our work together I draw on CBT, DBT, strength-based and behavioral approaches, and motivational interviewing, tailored to what you need rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. If you’re ready for support that fits your life, I’d love to connect.
