About Brett
Brett Marshall is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. He offers practical help for issues like depression, anxiety, stress, grief, anger, self-esteem, intimacy-related concerns, career struggles, and coping with life changes. He also addresses trauma and abuse, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and coaching needs.
Many people who contact him are dealing with relationship tensions, parenting pressures, adoption or foster care challenges, fatherhood concerns, or midlife transitions. Brett keeps session work warm and direct.
Background and approach
He aims to build respect and sensitivity in the room and avoids stigmatizing labels. Conversations focus on concrete steps and small goals rather than long, abstract theories. He adapts the plan to each person’s situation and pace.
Over more than two decades of practice he has used a mix of approaches to match how someone prefers to work. That variety helps him shift methods when a different tool could move things forward. Sessions often include practical skills to manage anxiety and low mood, and strategies for handling stressful moments.
Clients can expect clear communication about options and a focus on what matters most to them. Brett emphasizes collaboration and straightforward feedback during sessions. He supports people as they take steps toward clearer priorities and more manageable day-to-day routines.
To begin, prospective clients use the site’s Start Therapy process and complete a short matching questionnaire. From there scheduling follows the therapist’s availability and the subscription plan selected.
How Brett’s approaches translate to online care
Brett blends client-centered work and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide practical change. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and building trust so clients can set their own priorities and pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop tasks and skills to reduce anxiety, low mood, and stress.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Brett collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit best based on goals, preferences, and how they respond. He is willing to adjust the plan as progress is made and new needs appear.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to meet different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, follow through on skills practice between sessions, and check in when issues arise. The variety also lets people pick the communication style that helps them engage most effectively.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Mindfulness Therapy
Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
