About Marianne
Marianne Terrebonne is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Louisiana with 40 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief, addictions, and other life changes. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients may be accepted.
She began her career in school settings and spent many years working as a school-based liaison with Juvenile Diversion Services alongside the district attorney's office. That work shaped her practical, problem-solving outlook. She focuses on assessment, counseling, and treatment planning drawn from long experience in education and community settings.
Marianne uses cognitive behavioral ideas alongside attachment-based and client-centered methods. She helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits, practice different responses, and work on relationship patterns. She also draws on skills from dialectical behavior approaches and emotionally-focused methods when those fit a person's needs.
Her areas of focus include family and parenting concerns, anger and control issues, self-esteem, coping with life changes, and stress management. Marianne also supports people dealing with career concerns, isolation, midlife transitions, and veteran-related issues. She lists ADHD, postpartum depression, and grief among other specialties she addresses.
Marianne describes her approach as practical and problem-focused. She emphasizes clear goals, observable steps, and treatment planning based on assessment. People can expect sessions that concentrate on concrete strategies alongside exploration of relationship patterns and emotional responses.
How Marianne blends approaches for online work
Marianne uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT is practical and action-oriented, which helps with anxiety, mood concerns, stress, and habits that get in the way of daily life.She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early and current relationships shape reactions now. That approach helps when relationship patterns, trust, or closeness are central to the problem. Client-Centered Therapy is part of her way of working too, which means sessions pay attention to the person’s experience and preferences as the work is planned.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Marianne will talk with each person about goals, what has worked before, and preferences. Together they decide whether CBT, attachment work, client-centered methods, or a mix makes the most sense for the issues at hand.
