About Marie

Marie Kidd is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 11 years of experience helping people through stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, trauma, and self-esteem concerns. She focuses on practical steps that make daily life easier and on building stronger self-regard. Her manner is warm and collaborative, and she aims to help people feel more capable and connected.

In sessions she listens for patterns that contribute to worry, low mood, or repeated relationship struggles. She helps clients name painful feelings, try small changes, and practice new ways of communicating. Work often combines emotion-focused conversation with real-life strategies for handling panic, social anxiety, or caregiver stress.

Marie pays close attention to attachment and abandonment experiences that fuel shame or isolation. She also supports people dealing with body image, money worries, and the emotional fallout of divorce or separation. Her focus includes coping with mood fluctuations, impulsivity, and panic attacks.

Her style is compassionate and straightforward. She invites clients to set concrete goals and to test different approaches between sessions. Progress is usually framed around skills people can use in their daily routines.

Marie practices in Montana and works in English. She emphasizes collaboration and practical problem solving, and she encourages people to bring whatever feels most pressing to the first session.

Evidence-based approaches and online care that fit your life

Marie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that emphasize clear steps and emotional understanding. One common approach she uses focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to reduce anxiety and depression; this helps people manage panic attacks and regain a sense of control. Another approach targets attachment and relational patterns by examining how early relationship experiences shape current reactions, which can help with abandonment fears and communication problems.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. From there she and the client decide collaboratively which methods to try and how to adjust them over time.

Practical online therapy benefits can include fitting sessions into a busy life and keeping momentum between appointments. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current session options before booking. Marie aims to structure sessions so they fit a client's schedule and daily responsibilities, whether the focus is short-term skill building for panic and anxiety or longer work on self-esteem and trauma recovery.
