Getting to know Maryanne McKowen

Hi there, I'm Maryanne! My name is Maryanne McKowen, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with over 30 years of experience. I earned my Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy and Child Counseling from California State University, Dominguez Hills. I specialize in helping individuals navigate depression, anxiety, life balance, and emotional resilience through a strength-based, holistic approach that incorporates cognitive therapy techniques. My approach My therapeutic approach centers on creating a collaborative and supportive environment where clients feel empowered to explore and overcome challenges. I utilize Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness techniques, focusing on building emotional resilience and fostering calm and well-being. My focus I work with clients struggling with depression, anxiety, or emotions related to feeling overwhelmed by life or life-changing events such as job changes, grief, or mental illness in a family member. I also address mild trauma caused by adverse events in adulthood. My communication style I create a warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental space. My style is direct yet compassionate, ensuring clients feel heard and understood while being gently guided toward their goals. My journey to mental healthcare My journey to becoming a therapist began with a deep desire to help others navigate life’s complexities with greater ease and resilience. Over the years, I’ve been committed to supporting individuals and families in finding balance, peace, and well-being during challenging times. These experiences shaped my holistic and strength-based approach, allowing me to guide clients with empathy and expertise. My goals for you Goal setting in therapy is collaborative; I work closely with clients to identify desired outcomes and create clear, actionable plans to achieve them.
