About Mari
Mari Fullmer is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 14 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and relationship concerns. She works with adults and young adults who want to build confidence, improve motivation, and feel more grounded in daily life. Mari believes clients know their own story and already have strengths to draw on.
Her role is to help people reconnect with those strengths and find practical ways to cope.
Background and approach
She emphasizes a collaborative, down-to-earth approach that combines insight with clear actions. Sessions focus on skills you can use between meetings. Mari mixes talking, skill practice, and gentle reflection so clients leave with tangible tools.
She pays attention to how emotions, relationships, and life purpose connect to overall wellbeing. Her toolkit includes cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-based thinking, and mindfulness practices. Those methods are used to address stress, body image concerns, caregiver strain, and communication problems, among other issues.
Mari also supports people through pregnancy and childbirth transitions, grief and loss, and questions about self-love and life direction. She frames sensitivity as a strength and helps clients use it as a resource. Mari aims to be an ally who offers warmth, practical suggestions, and a steady presence.
How Mari’s approaches fit online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on identifying personal values and taking small, consistent actions toward them while learning to relate differently to unwanted thoughts. It can help with anxiety, low motivation, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early connection styles affect current bonds; it can be useful for communication problems and relationship stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and day-to-day life. Sessions may blend several approaches so the plan changes as progress is made and new needs appear.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and carry out guided exercises together. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow ongoing contact, quick problem-solving, and reflection between scheduled meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week while still using evidence-informed techniques like ACT and attachment-based ideas.
