About Dr. Marnee S. Colburn
If you are reading this, you may be suffering in one way or another.
You may not know exactly what is bothering you or makes you uncomfortable inside. But you also have a belief that things can be better, and are willing to ask for help in getting there. I applaud your courage – you have already taken the hardest step.
I am a seasoned therapist, having been lucky enough to do this work for decades now. I bring a large body of therapeutic perspectives / practical tools to my work with each person. You are unique. You set the goals, or, if you don’t know what they are, I help you formulate them. I help YOU get where YOU want. I listen deeply. I invite collaboration.
You have made a courageous decision to ask for help. It’s a big deal – congratulate yourself! I am here to take it to the next step with you, as an experienced guide in what may feel to be a scary process. We move at your pace, with you in charge of the process, every step of the way. The good news: you don’t have to go it alone. Next step- together!
