About Marie

Marie Judith Charpentier-Thorpe is a licensed counselor (LPC) and licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) in Florida who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship strain, depression, and life transitions. She speaks English and welcomes clients from other countries. Her way of working centers on listening first and helping each person build on their own strengths.

She believes clients are the experts on their own stories. Sessions focus on practical steps and clear goals that match what matters most to the individual. Marie supports people who want to improve confidence, motivation, and emotional balance during hard times.

Her approach draws on a blend of methods including acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-based thinking, client-centered principles, cognitive behavioral tools, and emotionally-focused strategies. That mix lets her tailor sessions to real-world problems like workplace stress, body image concerns, caregiving strain, and feelings of isolation.

With three years of professional experience, she aims to make therapy a collaborative process. People can expect straightforward conversation, gentle challenge, and exercises to practice between meetings. The work is paced to match each person’s comfort and goals.

To begin, clients select the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire. Scheduling follows the therapist's availability and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

Approaches that guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then take actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and when life feels uncertain.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relating patterns affect current connections and emotional reactions. It can help when communication or closeness feels difficult in important relationships.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying different behaviors to shift mood and stress. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and building practical coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works together with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaborative planning may combine ideas from different approaches rather than sticking to one model.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session options before booking since formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and check-ins for remote meetings so the work stays focused on practical change and emotional support.
