Marie Castellucci is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 25 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and relationship problems with clear, down-to-earth support. She aims to meet each person where they are and use practical steps to reduce distress and improve daily life.

Her approach begins by listening to the whole story and finding strengths to build on. Sessions are collaborative and direct, with an emphasis on honesty and caring without judgment. She often uses mindfulness practices to help people notice thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed.

Marie blends several practical methods to match what a person needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy offers tools to spot and change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Solution-Focused Therapy helps people set small, doable goals and track progress. Motivational Interviewing supports readiness for change when someone feels stuck.

She has worked with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, parenting stress, intimacy-related issues, ADHD, mood disorders, and career or money worries. Her style is compassionate and straightforward, aiming to help people feel more capable and in control of their day-to-day choices.

People who choose her often want a therapist who listens closely, suggests practical strategies, and treats them with respect. To begin, she asks clients to identify clear goals and then works step-by-step toward those aims.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Mindfulness Therapy helps people become more aware of their thoughts and feelings in the moment. It often uses short exercises in breathing and attention that reduce reactivity and make daily stresses easier to notice and manage. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person without judgment so they can find their own solutions and build confidence.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and mood concerns by setting clear steps and homework to practice between sessions. Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the process; the therapist will work together with the client to choose what fits their needs, goals, and preferences in a collaborative way.

Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to schedule appointments around school, work, or caregiving duties. It also allows shorter check-ins when needed, and practices like mindfulness or CBT homework can be reviewed between meetings. Licensed professionals commonly use these benefits to help therapy fit into everyday life without requiring major changes to routines.
