About Brett

Brett Marshall is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida. He works with people facing relationship strain, parenting challenges, anger, anxiety, depression, and major life changes. He also supports those coping with trauma, grief, career concerns, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.

Brett keeps sessions warm and interactive. He focuses on building a respectful, compassionate relationship and avoids stigmatizing labels. Conversations aim to be practical and straightforward so people can use what they learn right away.

His approach centers on the person in front of him, drawing on client-centered ideas to follow each person’s pace and priorities. He also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and solution-focused tools to identify small, achievable steps.

Brett individualizes each plan to match real-life needs. Sessions may include skills practice, short exercises, goal-setting, and checking what feels most useful between meetings. He frames the work as a collaboration where the client’s goals guide the process.

With more than 21 years as a clinician, Brett brings long experience to everyday problems. He invites people who want clearer direction or relief from ongoing stress to take a first step and begin a conversation.

How client-centered and cognitive approaches work online

Client-centered work focuses on listening, understanding, and following what matters most to the person. In practice this means sessions emphasize the client’s goals, and the therapist reflects and clarifies so people feel heard and understood. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns through practical exercises and homework. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to manage stress and reduce reactivity.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs and preferences and will adapt methods as they learn what helps. This is a collaborative process where goals and techniques are adjusted over time.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people try practical exercises during the week and bring results back to the next session for review.
