About Marie
Marie Simpson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 25 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, parenting challenges, and major life changes. She talks plainly and listens closely to understand what feels most urgent to each person. Her aim is to help people take small, realistic steps toward feeling better.
Her work blends practical tools and careful listening. She uses approaches like the Gottman Method to address relationship patterns, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to clarify values and reduce avoidance, and Attachment-Based Therapy to understand connection and safety.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and client-centered techniques also shape conversations for coping and problem solving. Sessions focus on what the person needs now. That might mean learning ways to manage panic or seasonal low moods, talking through parenting stress, or addressing past trauma and its effects.
She helps people name painful feelings and build actions that match their goals. Marie adapts the pace and style to each person. Some people want direct skill practice, while others need more time to tell their story.
She balances practical strategies with attention to emotions and relationships. She works from Kentucky and holds a Kentucky LCSW license. Conversations are collaborative and aimed at useful change rather than jargon.
The focus is on small steps that add up to better coping and clearer direction.

Online support
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Gottman Method work focuses on patterns in relationships and communication. Online sessions can help identify repeating interactions and teach concrete skills for better connection and conflict handling. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values. That approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and major life changes because it shifts attention toward meaningful behavior rather than getting stuck on thoughts.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and the issues you bring, then recommend which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made over time based on what helps most.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for full conversations and skill practice. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or work better when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text let people check in between sessions or use shorter, focused exchanges. These options make it easier to schedule consistent work and keep momentum toward change.
