About Marie
Marie Pierre-Canel is a Florida LMHC with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family concerns, coping with life changes, trauma and abuse, parenting, anger, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and depression. She also addresses ADHD, compassion fatigue, and coaching-related goals. Marie speaks English, Spanish, French, and Haitian Creole and works with international clients.
In sessions she uses clear, practical strategies. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered and existential approaches. That means she helps people notice thoughts and habits, test small behavior changes, and reflect on meaning and values. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused rather than purely academic.
She pays attention to communication and attachment patterns that affect daily life. For someone struggling with caregiver stress, relationship conflict, or isolation, she will map problems into manageable steps. For mood or anxiety symptoms she helps people build routines, coping skills, and ways to check unhelpful thoughts.
Marie also uses motivational interviewing and narrative therapy tools when they fit the issue. These methods can help with commitment issues, motivation for change, and reshaping how people tell their own story. She balances practical skill-building with space to consider broader life questions.

How her approaches translate to online work
Marie Pierre-Canel uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions; online sessions can focus on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing alternative responses between meetings. Client-Centered therapy provides a conversational, person-focused frame where the therapist listens and reflects so clients can clarify goals and priorities. Existential therapy helps people examine meaning, values, and life choices when they face big transitions or questions about direction.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. She will work with clients to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences, combining CBT skills, motivational interviewing, or narrative techniques when helpful. The decision is collaborative and may shift as progress is made.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also supports language-matched sessions in English, Spanish, French, or Haitian Creole and can help people keep continuity of care when they are outside Florida or are international clients.
