About Mari

Mari Broman is a Michigan-based licensed social worker with 36 years of clinical experience supporting people facing a wide range of emotional and life challenges, including ADHD, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, and career stress.

Background and approach

She draws on decades of practice to help clients explore mood disorders, self-esteem struggles, addiction concerns, and complex transitions such as divorce or caregiving responsibilities. Her style blends compassion with practical problem solving, encouraging self-discovery while teaching coping strategies that fit everyday life.

Mari integrates approaches like client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and psychodynamic perspectives to tailor care to each person’s situation. She pays particular attention to attachment, communication, and patterns that influence relationships and decision making.

Clients can expect an approachable, thoughtful clinician who values collaboration and gradual progress. Her work often focuses on restoring balance during times of change, reducing overwhelm, and helping people build skills to manage emotions, set goals, and strengthen connections with others.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and building a therapeutic alliance, helping people feel understood and empowered to set their own goals. This approach is useful for clients seeking validation, clearer self-understanding, and a supportive space for exploring feelings.

Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing practical strategies to change behaviors and emotional responses. CBT is often applied for anxiety, depression, stress management, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together; the therapist collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process may draw on different techniques over time as priorities shift.

Online sessions offer flexibility with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging so people can engage in ways that suit schedules and comfort levels. These options can make it easier to maintain continuity during life transitions and to access licensed professionals from varied locations, while allowing the therapist to tailor pacing and tools to each client's circumstances.
