Online sessions and therapeutic methods
Marea uses client-centered therapy to create a collaborative online space that focuses on each person’s priorities. In accessible terms, this approach centers the conversation on what matters most to the individual and invites joint decision making about goals and next steps. Mindfulness therapy is offered as a complementary technique to help with stress and anxiety by cultivating present-moment awareness and practical coping skills.
For trauma-related concerns she draws on trauma-focused and somatic-informed strategies to address both the psychological and bodily responses that can follow difficult events. These methods are presented with attention to pacing and collaboration so that the person and therapist shape the process together.
