About Brett
Brett Marshall is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with 21 years of clinical experience. He focuses on common life struggles such as depression, anxiety, relationship and parenting problems, career stress, grief, trauma and abuse, and issues with anger and self-esteem.
He uses straightforward conversation and practical strategies. Sessions aim to notice unhelpful thoughts and habits, try small changes, and review what works. He combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with client-centered, mindfulness, and solution-focused ideas to keep work concrete and goal-oriented.
Brett prefers an interactive style that treats people with respect and without labels. He listens to daily concerns and helps map clear steps to reduce distress and regain routine functioning. Expect a mix of talking, practice suggestions, and brief exercises to use between meetings.
He has worked with people affected by physical trauma and emotional abuse and helps those navigating adoption and foster care issues, fatherhood concerns, and midlife challenges. He also supports people dealing with compassion fatigue and ADHD-related struggles.
Sessions are organized to set priorities and track progress. Brett emphasizes collaboration: clients identify problems, try approaches, and then adjust plans based on results. He uses client feedback to shape what comes next.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and are handled through a cancellable subscription model.
How his approaches guide online sessions
He often combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered methods to keep sessions practical. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts, testing new ways of thinking, and practicing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-centered work emphasizes listening and using the client's own goals as the starting point for each session.He also uses mindfulness techniques to help people notice thoughts and bodily reactions without getting swept away by them. Mindfulness can be useful for managing stress, anger, and symptoms that follow trauma. Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work; the therapist and client decide together which methods to try based on needs, goals, and what feels manageable.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow a shorter check-in when needed, and reduce travel time. The therapist will discuss practical scheduling and session length during the first meeting to match sessions to everyday life.
