Marie DeGennaro

Hi there, my name is Marie and I approach therapy with an open heart and curious mind. I naturally bring a calm and grounding energy that can help you build emotional safety and growth within yourself. I believe every person deserves a space where they feel truly seen and accepted. To me, therapy is a place for you to explore, process, discover goals, and gain a deeper understanding of your life experiences. I work primarily with LGBTQ+ folk, single-parents, and non-traditional relationship styles; though I welcome people of all backgrounds and identities to reach out.

My approach is grounded in Person-Centered therapy with interventions from Mindfulness, Dialectic Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, and Solution Focused Brief Therapy. We can work together to explore what gives your life meaning, purpose, and direction. Sessions are collaborative and client-led; you set the pace, and I follow your lead.

Our first session is a conversation, not an evaluation. I'll ask about what's brought you to therapy and what you're hoping to get out of our time together. My goal is for you to leave feeling heard — and a little clearer about what your next step might look like.
