About Marianne
Marianne Clayburn is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing anxiety, depression, grief, and major life changes. She brings a calm, straightforward style to sessions and aims to help clients manage panic, stress, and mood challenges. Marianne holds LCSW and CSW credentials and works with clients from Utah in English.
Her practice centers on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and a trauma-informed outlook. She helps people talk through painful past experiences and the stress they cause.
Background and approach
She also supports those dealing with body image concerns, eating and food-related struggles, and symptoms of postpartum depression. Marianne pays attention to cultural context and multicultural concerns when they matter to a client. She also addresses feelings of abandonment, isolation, and the search for life purpose.
Practical coping skills and small behavioral steps are a regular part of her sessions. People who struggle with social anxiety, panic attacks, or seasonal mood shifts can work on 1) recognizing patterns that worsen symptoms and 2) testing small, manageable changes. Marianne uses a warm, respectful tone and focuses on building resilience over time.
Her background includes four years of clinical experience in adult mental health. Sessions are offered through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that fits their calendar.
Evidence-based approaches and online care that fit your life
Marianne uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and a trauma-informed perspective to help with anxiety, panic, depression, and life transitions. One common approach focuses on practical skills for managing anxiety and panic attacks, such as learning breathing and grounding strategies and gradually testing small changes to reduce avoidance. Another approach centers on addressing mood and trauma-related symptoms by identifying unhelpful patterns and building new routines that support emotional regulation and recovery.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Marianne works with each person to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most manageable. She adapts techniques over time and checks in regularly to make sure the plan fits the client's needs and pace.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow for a face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works well for brief check-ins, and text messaging can help people stay connected between sessions. These options help fit therapy into work breaks, childcare routines, or days when getting out is difficult.
