- The concept and definition of trauma and what it might look like for all humans

- The ways that trauma may show up during sessions and impact our work as artists

- The power of vulnerability and how it helps increase creativity

- Sustainability in business and hustle culture, especially for women and moms

- And so much more!

She specializes in working with individuals who have experienced early childhood trauma, as well as who struggle with PTSD. Marie’s counseling program also hosts a program for offenders who have used sexual violence, and she specializes in working to address the impact of sexual abuse and domestic violence on individuals and communities.
