Meet Marianne Cook, EdD, LICSW
I believe that great therapy is tailored to meet your unique needs and goals.
I integrate a variety of approaches into my work, including insight-oriented methods, mindfulness practices, and cognitive behavioral techniques.
Depending on what you bring to any given session, we might work on specific tools to address a current problem, examine the origins of a long-standing pattern, or explore some of life’s biggest questions together.
There might be tears (I have a lifetime supply of tissues) but there will also be shared laughter, and possibly some pop-culture references. There will not be any judgment of who you are and what you’re about.
My practice is welcoming and affirming to individuals of all races, cultures, sexual orientations, and gender dimensions, and is a safe space in which to explore the role that power and privilege play in our lives.
Training and Experience
I hold a bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Harvard University, a master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Chicago, and a doctoral degree in Higher Education, with a research focus on student and faculty mental health, from Northeastern University.
Prior to opening my private practice, I worked with college and graduate students in individual and group psychotherapy as a mental health clinician at Harvard University Health Services, where I also co-directed the Student Mental Health Liaisons.
In addition, I have served as a freshman adviser and alumni career adviser at Harvard, and as a social work intern supervisor at Boston College.
