Marie Duncan , LMFT

Marie Duncan is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with an Education Specialist degree (Ed.S.) and 25 years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, and life transitions. She draws on a broad background in family and couples work as well as individual therapy to help clients restore balance, clarify priorities, and rebuild a sense of purpose. Her training includes both clinical and educational study - the Ed.S. indicates advanced graduate-level preparation beyond a master’s degree, and the LMFT credential denotes specialized licensure in marriage and family therapy.

Marie approaches each person as an individual with their own strengths and limitations, blending evidence-informed strategies such as cognitive behavioral techniques and emotion-focused methods with a client-centered stance. She works collaboratively to inventory current stressors, identify patterns that sap energy or joy, and develop practical coping skills for everyday life. Whether concerns center on parenting, caregiving, career pressures, intimacy, or the long-term impacts of trauma, she aims to create a space for honest reflection and steady progress.

Over the course of her career Marie has supported people facing depression, panic, compassion fatigue, and isolation, helping them regain resilience and clearer communication with loved ones. Her style balances warmth and realism - clients can expect focused, goal-oriented work that also honors emotional experience and the effort required to change. Marie’s long experience guides her interventions while remaining responsive to each person’s unique goals and pace.
