Hello! My name is Marian Bach. I have worked in the mental health field for the past 25 years. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Certified Grief Recovery Specialist, Certified Addictions Professional, Certified Life Coach and National Certified Counselor. My goal over my years of working with many, many clients has been to help them learn how and to practice moving forward from suffering and dysfunction to living in wellness and positive purpose in life and life style. Some of the issues I have helped clients with are various trauma experiences, self esteem building, food and/or body image problems, as well as coaching for career choice concerns, educational problems and any unclear situation that might require dissecting and guidance from a non-judgmental “eye’. My style is warm and comfortable. I am respectful and encouraging. I empathize with my client’s problems and help to separate emotions from behaviors. I am very solution focused. I definitely work to get into the solution and help my clients move that way as well. I feel it is very brave of someone to come and ask for help for themselves. I like to help clients learn about and practice mindfulness and learn how to appreciate what is positive in their lives by practicing daily gratitude. I am looking forward to meeting you and being your good listener, guide, and us working as a team to help you build and live in inner peace.
