Marquise Middleton, LPC - Therapist in Missouri

About Marquise

Marquise Middleton is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri. He focuses on common concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship or intimacy-related issues. Parents looking for parenting and family support will find a straightforward, calm presence who listens before offering ideas.

Sessions begin with clear goals and simple steps. He uses practical tools and short-term strategies so progress is noticeable between visits. Conversations stay direct and respectful, with room for emotional talk and problem solving.

Background and approach

Marquise draws from several therapy methods to match what a person needs. He leans on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy helps with emotion regulation and sudden strong feelings.

Internal Family Systems offers a way to understand inner parts and how they relate to each other. Over five years of practice inform his choices in session, but the work centers on each person’s situation and pace. Marquise aims to help people build better routines, clear communication, and steadier moods.

He explains tools plainly and practices them together with the client. Outside of sessions he asks straightforward questions to make sure therapy fits real life. The goal is steady improvement rather than quick fixes.

Parents and individuals who want practical skills and a collaborative approach often find this style helpful.

Therapeutic Approaches and How They Work Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person without judgment. It helps people feel understood and guides the work from their goals and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions and teaches concrete skills to change those patterns; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and mood issues.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through what feels helpful and try techniques that match the client’s needs and preferences. Together they will review what works and adjust the plan as progress unfolds to keep the work practical and relevant.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy family schedules and to use skills in real time between meetings. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction, phone sessions offer flexibility, and chat or messaging can support short check-ins or practice of new skills throughout the week. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and client-centered techniques to each of these formats so therapy stays focused and accessible.

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.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
