Life is full of challenging experiences … and people! We all need an encouraging mentor to listen and guide us toward our goals. Family and friends may mean well, but unfortunately they usually have their own agenda, criticize without understanding, and offer advice that is best for them- not you. I bet this is happening to you right now. This is just a natural way with untrained people. Let me empower you!
Let’s get you on track to where you want to go. We’ll have fun and maybe share some tears along the way.
Managing your stress, anxiety, and depression is our goal. You may be in a difficult or strained relationship that leaves you drained and even sucks the life out of you. No wonder you are tired!
Just like the hundreds of other clients I have helped to return joy to their lives, I offer 25 years of professional experience.
You can do this! Start right now and sign up for your session with me. We’ll even laugh a little! You need this and don’t want to be stuck in this place, do you? Let’s talk now!

Marie is probably one of my top 10 favorite people. I worked with her for about six months and then took a break and when I was going through a rough patch I scheduled with her again and It was like talking to my old friend / mentor. Her skill and listening abilities are unmatched. She bolstered my confidence with her listen and figure-it-out mentality. I just love her to pieces!

I have had three phone sessions with Marie so far and every time we speak I get off the call feeling better and I have steps to take to achieve my therapy goals. Marie is always high energy and I can hear her smiling through the phone. She is also very empathetic and encouraging.

Mrs. Marie has been a blessing. I couldn’t have been paired with a better therapist. The people at better help sure did listen to my needs. She is very sweet. I like that her approach is real she doesn’t sure coat things but delivers in the most respectful way. I can tell that she is doing what she loves and not just here because she has to be.

Marie is an amazing person. I’ve been to several therapists over the years and I have to say she’s by far the best in her field. She listens but, also is great at giving helpful advice.

With this being my first foray into therapy, I must say that I could not have asked for a better therapist. Marie is sensitive to my needs and helps accordingly. I love that she helps me navigate different situations and will pray with me at the end of a session if she feels I need it. I'm extremely pleased.

When I first signed up for I didn't know what to expect but I knew what I wanted and needed. I am so thankful for Marie Duncan. She is absolutely amazing. She listens to my concern and she hears me. At the end of the each session she recaps my goals and expectations. I am so glad she is my therapist. When she prayed before closing our first session I knew I had the right person. ❤️

I’d been battling to get into therapy for years. Went through college counseling; didn’t take, then a year+ later got into BetterHelp. My first therapist on here was a great dude, but I just wasn’t getting what I needed still and I wasn’t even sure what that was. But, then I got paired with Marie and she has helped me so much and instilled faith in therapy and trusting the process. She is a queen and I would protect her at all costs.

Marie is wonderful! She listens, checks in on you, suggests different things, and when you feel stuck, she asks questions to help draw you back out. I like her approach very much.

How would I review Marie specifically to me.... she's the mom I never had, the grandmother I never had, the best friend I never had. She builds me up and helps my walls come down. I smile every time I see her. She is someone that I would want in my life every day but I can't afford that. I look forward to seeing her every week. We need more Marie's in the world!

Marie listens intently. She takes notes about what I tell her, and brings positivity and a sense of ease to our talks. When Marie reflects back to me what I say, I feel grateful because I know that I am understood and safe to be vulnerable/open.

Marie Duncan has a deep handle on how to counsel people through their difficulties to a better place because of her empathy and extensive experience. She listens until she arrives at that place where she is confident of the direction of counseling path she is taking.
Written on Oct 02, 2023 after therapy with Marie for 3 months
We haven't been talking long, but I like her. She has a great sense of humor. She does pretty well of pulling me out of my own bubble. First listening to me, waiting, and then coming back with positivity that I KNOW is there with myself.
I've lived in self wallowing and self hatred for so long, I feel I don't deserve any good from the world. I feel like I NEED that constant reminder that things are going to be ok. And with my mama gone, I haven't had that lately. I can work through my thoughts in a safe and comforting way, and that's DETRIMENTAL to heal.
So, thank you Marie. Thank you for what you do and how you do it. You're a big help. I'm looking forward to our journey together as we help me be a better me.
