About Nanine

Nanine "Marie" Dickson is an LPC and LMHC practicing in Texas with 12 years of clinical counseling experience. She works with adults around stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, addictions, parenting strain, relationship issues, and related concerns. Sessions are offered in English.

Marie uses practical, goal-focused methods and helps people notice choices they can make. She often draws on cognitive behavioral approaches and attachment-based ideas to map patterns and change unhelpful thinking. Mindfulness and solution-focused techniques are part of how she helps people try small, testable changes between sessions.

Her background includes a master’s degree in Education and Counseling and many years in education before moving into clinical work. That history shapes how she explains concepts and sets short-term targets that people can use in daily life. She emphasizes clear steps rather than abstract theory.

In a typical session Marie talks through current problems, identifies practical options, and helps set manageable next steps. She looks at clients’ beliefs and relationships to find patterns that keep problems going. Sessions often include skill practice such as thought restructuring, grounding, or brief behavioral experiments.

Marie also focuses on caregiver stress, first responder issues, and veteran and armed forces concerns among other areas. She supports people dealing with grief, postpartum depression, seasonal mood shifts, and struggles with purpose or self-esteem.

Before booking, confirm which session formats are available. The therapist asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session to begin.

How her approaches shape online sessions

Attachment-based work looks at patterns in relationships and how early bonds affect current reactions; it helps people understand why certain interactions feel triggering and what they can try instead. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress by practicing new ways of thinking and acting. Solution-focused techniques concentrate on small, concrete steps and short-term goals to build momentum and measure progress.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That collaboration includes setting clear, achievable targets and checking in on what works so adjustments can be made.

Practical benefits of working online include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to do brief check-ins during a lunch break or to use shorter sessions when that suits a client’s routine. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which options are offered before booking. Licensed professionals generally adapt CBT exercises, mindfulness practices, and attachment-focused conversations to the remote setting so clients can use skills in daily life.
