About Brett

Brett Marshall is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with 21 years of clinical experience. He works with adults on relationship concerns, parenting stress, anger, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and career or life-change challenges. He also focuses on issues such as adoption and foster care, fatherhood matters, men's issues, midlife transitions, and compassion fatigue.

Brett uses a straightforward, interactive style in sessions. He listens without labels and helps people break concerns into manageable steps. He draws on cognitive-behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thinking and on client-centered ideas to keep the conversation focused on the person's goals.

His work also includes mindfulness techniques for managing stress and solution-focused strategies to set clear, short-term targets. In practice this means learning small skills to change reactions, practicing new ways of relating, and testing what works between sessions. Brett frames tasks so they fit into everyday life rather than piling on more obligations.

People who come because parenting feels overwhelming or a relationship is strained will find practical strategies to try right away. Those coping with past abuse or loss get support for emotional regulation and for rebuilding routines that help them move forward. Brett aims to help people notice small changes that add up over time.

He asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.

How sessions work

How his approaches translate to online sessions

Brett commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In practice this looks like identifying patterns that feed anxiety or anger and trying small behavioral experiments to see what shifts. CBT can be useful for depression, anxiety, stress, and managing reactions in family or parenting situations.

He also draws on client-centered principles that prioritize the person's goals and perspective. That means the therapist listens, reflects, and works with you to shape the focus of the work rather than imposing a fixed plan. Mindfulness methods are used to teach short attention and breathing practices that reduce overwhelm and improve emotional regulation.

Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. Brett will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. He uses feedback from sessions to adjust the plan and sets small, practical tasks to test what helps between meetings.

The original biography does not specify which session formats are offered. Confirm current session options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so people can schedule around work or parenting obligations.
