Counselor/Therapist, B.A. Christian Counseling, Certified Lay Counselor, Christian Counselor, and Life Coach
Hello, my name is Marilyn Dabney. I had past trauma and was stuck in a toxic relationship. I dealt with grief and depression. It was not until I sought counseling that my life began to change for the better. I was so overjoyed with the results I received that I wanted to help others as well. So, I received my bachelor's degree in Christian Counseling, training and Certifications in Lay Counseling, Christian Counseling and Life Mastery Coaching. I believe that having achieved life mastery in my own personal life and by using techniques and methods I've learned, I can teach others how to do the same. Let me help you tap into your Courageous self!
With years of counseling experience and over 15 years in self-help, energy healing, and relationship coaching, I provide a safe space for you to explore your emotions. We'll dive into your past and use expressive arts and deep emotional work to shape your present and future.
Why is it so hard to find a therapist? So many people arrive here exhausted from the search. I understand that your connection to your therapist is paramount to your healing. I offer a free consultation to give you a chance to see if we're a good "fit" with the hope that this can be a place to stop, rest and begin the process you've been longing to begin.
When you’re hurting emotionally and struggling to make your way through, talking to a trained professional is important for your health. Every day, I strive to bring tangible, positive change to my clients’ lives. My highest objective is to truly “get” you, understanding your complexities and nuances. I offer grounded, goal-centered counseling based on my respect for you, your uniqueness, and your capacity to grow and heal. Together, we will identify what changes you would like to make within yourself; then, we’ll work to transform pain to strength, challenge to wisdom, isolation to connection, and turbulence to peace.
Please see "Practice Details" below for additional information about my approach.

i have been a licensed therapist providing therapy since 2014. As all therapists will tell you, this career is very rewarding and most of us love what we do - helping people. What makes me different is I am laser-focused on helping each and every client learn their own personal power and how they can replace sadness and fear with joy and fulfillment. We'll do this by addressing your past trauma's, family dysfunction, as well as distorted thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that developed as a result of growing up and older in unhealthy relationships. Gaining awareness, changing these patterns, and learning effective coping skills, is key to stopping anxiety and depression (most common struggles) and any other issues that may be robbing you of the life you so desperately want and deserve. In addition to focusing on mental health, I'm currently working on another degree to get certified as a holistic practitioner, so I have a wealth of information regarding natural healing and steps toward physical wellness if a client wants or needs that type of information and support.

I find a great importance in connecting with individuals who feel disconnected, ashamed, marginalized, or stigmatized. It is my responsibility to offer a safe, nonjudgmental, and open atmosphere for expression. We often feel certain subjects/experiences are not to be acknowledged or discussed. I welcome those challenging subjects/experiences to be expressed at my practice.
