About Marian
Marian O'Quin is an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Louisiana with 26 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, and depression. Marian also focuses on concerns such as guilt and shame, loneliness, life purpose, veteran and armed forces issues, mood disorders, postpartum depression, and post-traumatic stress.
She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people with depression by identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing different ways of responding. For trauma she uses approaches that focus on processing traumatic memories and reducing their impact on daily life. Sessions are oriented to clear goals and practical steps rather than open-ended discussion.
Marian describes treatment planning as a collaborative process. She works with each person to set realistic steps and checks progress along the way. The work often includes practicing new coping skills between sessions and reviewing what helps or needs adjusting.
Her background spans many years of clinical work in Louisiana settings. That experience informs a direct, skills-based approach that emphasizes manageable changes. Marian aims to help people reduce distress and increase functioning through observable strategies.
People who choose her can expect focused, structured sessions that prioritize specific problems and measurable steps. Before booking, confirm current session options and scheduling details so they match your needs.
How CBT and trauma work online
Marian uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to pinpoint unhelpful thinking patterns and to practice alternative responses. CBT sessions focus on concrete exercises, between-session practice, and tracking what changes. She also uses cognitive processing approaches for trauma that work on understanding and reorganizing traumatic memories so they stop driving daily reactions.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review symptoms, goals, and personal preferences and then try practical strategies. Adjustments are made based on what works in real life, so treatment evolves as progress is tracked.
