About Marie
LMHC licensed in Massachusetts with 18 years of experience, Marie Foley helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and challenges around relationships, parenting, addiction, and major life changes. She also supports those dealing with trauma, grief, low self-esteem, ADHD, panic and social anxiety. Marie speaks English and practices in Massachusetts.
Marie uses straightforward conversation to identify what feels most urgent. She listens and asks practical questions to clarify daily routines, triggers, and what has or has not helped before. Together with each person she sets small, manageable goals and checks progress from week to week.
Her sessions focus on skills people can use between meetings. That can include breathing and grounding practices for panic, simple behavior changes to reduce overwhelm, or strategies to notice and shift unhelpful thinking. She also helps people plan concrete steps when facing relationship strain, parenting stress, grief, or addiction-related concerns.
Marie has worked clinically for nearly two decades. She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and a problem-solving approach shaped by long experience in community and clinical settings. Her way of working is direct and practical rather than theoretical.
To begin, she asks people to complete a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. International clients are not currently accepted.

Evidence-based approaches for remote work
Marie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and behavior change. One common approach emphasizes noticing and adjusting patterns of thought and behavior that maintain anxiety and low mood; this helps when panic attacks, social anxiety, or persistent negative thinking are the primary problems. Another approach centers on developing practical coping skills such as grounding, paced breathing, and stepwise exposure to feared situations; these tools are useful for panic, trauma responses, and moments of overwhelming stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marie treats the choice of techniques as collaborative and will help a person decide what fits their needs, goals, and everyday routine. She reviews progress and adapts methods based on what actually helps in weekly check-ins.
Confirm the session formats before booking since none are specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a full-length meeting is hard to schedule. For some people, phone meetings require less bandwidth and can be a straightforward way to keep momentum between in-person appointments. Ask about current session options when you sign up so you can plan what best fits your life.
