About Marshawna
Marshawna Hoyte uses a practical, person-centered approach that focuses on what helps most in everyday life. She is a licensed professional clinical counselor with 11 years of experience and explains things plainly so parents can follow along. Sessions aim to address stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles with steady support and clear steps.
She emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in every session. Conversations and plans are shaped around the individual needs a person brings.
Background and approach
Marshawna works with concerns such as parenting pressures, grief, trauma and abuse, and compassion fatigue, moving at a pace that feels manageable. Her background includes training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, which is used to work through distressing memories and reduce their hold on daily life.
She pairs that work with straightforward strategies for coping, mood management, and improving self-esteem. Marshawna tailors sessions to the issues people name, like anger, communication problems, or feeling isolated. She also addresses topics such as fatherhood issues, women’s concerns, seasonal mood shifts, and questions about life purpose.
The goal is to create simple, realistic steps clients can try between sessions. She offers therapy in English from Ohio and uses a collaborative tone so people feel heard while building practical skills. Starting therapy can feel hard, and Marshawna aims to make the process clear and doable for those who reach out.
EMDR and Practical Support Online
Marshawna uses EMDR - Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing - as one key tool. EMDR involves gentle guided techniques to help process distressing memories so they have less emotional charge. It is often used for trauma-related reactions, grief, and intrusive memories.She combines that targeted approach with straightforward coping strategies for anxiety, depression, and parenting stress. Those strategies focus on small, doable changes people can try between sessions to manage mood and improve daily functioning. Deciding which methods to use is collaborative; the therapist and client work together to pick the best fit based on goals and comfort level.
Online sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexibility. These formats make it easier to fit appointments into busy family schedules and to continue work from home or while traveling. Marshawna aims to adapt exercises and EMDR-informed work to the format that best suits each person’s needs, making it practical to get support without extra travel.
EMDR
A structured protocol used with distressing memories, pairing recall with guided attention tasks. Some therapists adapt it for video sessions; whether that fits is worth asking about directly.
