Marlie Standen

Marlie is humbled by the opportunity to walk alongside clients in therapy and help them achieve their goals. Marlie is passionate and experienced in working with individuals struggling with stress and burnout, depression, anxiety, self-criticism, relationship issues, trauma and addictions. Marlie’s energy is warm, compassionate, genuine and relaxed. Marlie cultivates a space where clients can go inside and deepen their self-awareness, strengthen their relationship with themselves and actualize their goals for change.

Marlie takes an attachment- and trauma-informed and strengths-based approach to working with her clients. Marlie is passionate about the mind-body connection and her approach is informed by interpersonal neurobiology and the polyvagal theory. Marlie uses an integrated approach uniquely fitted to each client’s needs which draws on various evidence-based approaches, including: Internal Family Systems (IFS), body-based counselling strategies, narrative therapy, mindfulness-based therapies, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), and CBT-Insomnia.

Marlie sees individual teens & adults.

Marlie practises at our Runnymede & Bloor location.
