Marie Hanby

Marie Hanby is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, trauma, and major life changes. She focuses on practical steps that make daily life feel more manageable. She treats isolation and loneliness as one of the issues people bring to sessions. Marie speaks English and draws on a few focused therapy approaches to support lasting change.

Marie believes clients know their own stories and brings a respectful, listening-based style to sessions. She aims to help people identify small, realistic actions to rebuild routine, connection, and meaning. She also offers support for caregiver stress, workplace strain, relationship pain such as infidelity or separation, and recovery from assault or domestic violence.

Her practice emphasizes collaboration rather than telling people what to do. In sessions she listens first, reflects back what she hears, and helps set clear goals together. That can include practicing values-based choices, noticing unhelpful patterns, and trying new habits between meetings.

With four years of professional experience, Marie works with people who want compassionate, straightforward help getting through a hard season. She frames progress as gradual and practical, not miraculous. If someone is ready to try therapy, she supports them in taking the next step and planning sessions that fit their life.

Before booking, readers should confirm current session formats and any scheduling details. The therapist uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time for session payment.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take small, values-driven actions even when feelings are difficult. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, grief, and the emptiness that often comes with isolation. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s experience by listening deeply and reflecting what is said, helping people feel heard and start to trust their own choices again.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Marie works together with each person to see which methods fit their goals and preferences. She adjusts techniques based on what helps a person make practical changes and feel less stuck, and she invites feedback about what feels useful during the process.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives and reduce travel time. Please confirm the specific session formats offered before booking, since options are set by the therapist. Many people find that meeting remotely helps keep consistency, allows shorter check-ins when needed, and makes it simpler to build new habits between sessions.
