About Marie

Marie Castellucci is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado with 25 years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical help for stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and other struggles that affect daily life. Her style is compassionate and direct, with an emphasis on listening and responding without judgment.

Parents reading this will find straightforward support for common life disruptions and relationship strains. Marie centers sessions on each person’s story and strengths.

Background and approach

She works together with clients to set clear, achievable goals and build simple tools to manage emotions and behavior. In session she uses conversational, goal-focused methods rather than long lectures. Her approach blends client-centered care with cognitive behavioral techniques and solution-focused strategies.

She adds motivational interviewing to help people find internal reasons to change, and uses mindfulness practices to calm stress and sharpen focus. Those techniques are applied in ways that fit everyday family and parenting concerns. Marie’s practice emphasizes practical steps: identifying patterns, trying small experiments, and checking results.

She supports work on communication, boundaries, coping with life changes, and handling anger or shame. Progress is tracked in real time and adjusted as needed. Sessions are available through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time and costs vary with location and therapist availability. To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that works for them.

How Marie’s Approaches Work Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding your perspective and building trust so solutions grow from your own goals. It helps when someone needs a supportive space to sort through feelings and decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and tests small changes to reduce anxiety and depression. It is useful for stress, mood shifts, and behavior patterns that get in the way of daily life.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase clarity. These tools are helpful for stress, anger, and situations that feel overwhelming.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Marie will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in and adjusts the plan if something isn’t working.

Online sessions through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy family routines. These options let people meet from home, handle short check-ins between responsibilities, and use the format that feels most comfortable. The flexibility helps maintain continuity when schedules or locations change.

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.
