Getting to know Marcus Pierre
Hi there, I'm Marcus!
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with a Master's in Professional Counseling from Grand Canyon University. I work with adolescents and adults and specialize in anxiety, depression, anger management, personal growth, and self-actualization.
My approach
My approach to therapy varies depending on the client's needs. I utilize a strength-based approach drawing from modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. Through behavioral therapy, we identify and modify problematic patterns using techniques like reinforcement, extinction, and exposure to promote more adaptive, healthy, and intentional living.
My focus
My style and approach work well with teens and adults navigating transition and change. Change often causes emotional dysregulation, manifesting as anxiety, anger, depression, stress, frustration, hopelessness, and stagnation.
My communication style
The environment I create in sessions is one of empathy, compassion, support, safety, and empowerment. In the right environment, everyone can heal, recover, and experience true freedom.
My journey to mental healthcare
I have always had a passion for helping others; after going through counseling myself, I discovered the life-changing impact of therapy. My desire to see individuals living healthily and intentionally motivates me to serve as a therapist.
My goals for you
Goal setting is collaborative. Together, we will formulate attainable goals and identify manageable action steps to produce your desired outcomes. Goal setting is a tool to live life intentionally.
My first session with you
During the initial session, we will discuss your reason for seeking treatment and your desired outcomes. We will spend most of the session exploring your feelings.
