Practical, skills-based online therapy with a client-centered focus
Marla Stamm draws from approaches that emphasize clarity, collaboration, and real-world tools. Client-Centered Therapy keeps sessions grounded in what matters most to the client, with the therapist offering support and structure while the client’s goals and values guide the direction of care.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connection between thoughts, emotions, and actions. It can be especially helpful for concerns like stress, anxiety, low mood, and life transitions by identifying unhelpful patterns and practicing more balanced ways of thinking and responding. Motivational Interviewing supports change by exploring ambivalence in a respectful, nonjudgmental way, which can be useful when working on habits, substance use, or any goal that feels hard to start or sustain.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Marla works collaboratively with clients to understand what they want to improve, what has or has not worked before, and what style of support feels most helpful, then adjusts the plan as goals evolve.
Online therapy can make it easier to stay consistent with care. Clients can connect through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing flexibility for busy schedules and different communication preferences.
