About Mariellen
Mariellen LePage is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Tennessee with 21 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on concerns such as anger, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, grief, parenting stress, and other life changes.
Mariellen uses practical talk and skill-building in sessions. She draws on cognitive behavioral tools and acceptance-oriented work to help people notice reactions and change unhelpful patterns. She also uses emotion-focused and dialectical strategies to address intense feelings and improve how people relate to themselves and others.
Sessions focus on clarifying what matters to the client and then building small, doable steps toward those goals. That may include short behavioral experiments, emotion regulation skills, or exercises to shift unhelpful thinking. Mariellen pays attention to patterns from family of origin, attachment, and past trauma when relevant to current struggles.
Her work often includes coaching-style guidance for practical problems like sleep, work stress, or caregiving strain. She also addresses co-occurring issues such as substance use, codependency, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes.
People who meet with Mariellen can expect a collaborative approach. She helps clients pick methods that fit their goals and life rhythm. To begin, prospective clients follow the site matching steps and schedule an initial session.
How sessions work
How her approaches work for online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then taking steps aligned with personal values. It can help with anger that keeps people repeating the same reactive patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-world experiments to change feelings and behavior. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, and anger that matches specific triggers.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to choose which methods to try first, adjust strategies over time, and mix techniques based on goals and progress. That collaborative process helps keep sessions practical and relevant to daily life.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow brief check-ins when needed. Some approaches translate well to remote sessions because they use homework, skills practice, and short behavioral experiments that can be done between meetings. Ask about format details when you schedule so you can pick arrangements that match your routine and needs.
