Marine Vernet

Marine Vernet is a counsellor who blends psychoanalytic, existential and cognitive-behavioural ideas to meet each person’s needs. She offers a listening space where people can talk about intimacy, identity, sex, infidelity, trauma and relationship wounds. Sessions are presented as a conversation that aims to help someone feel heard and move forward.

With three years' experience, she works with anxiety, depression and low mood alongside relational struggles. Her practice often addresses issues around desire, attachment, abandonment and commitment. She also supports people navigating kink, alternative sexual cultures, and questions about identity and sexuality.

Her way of working is flexible and collaborative. The past is looked at to understand patterns, but the main focus is on what is happening now and what can change next. Meetings are intended to help people find direction, build confidence and make decisions that fit who they want to be.

Sessions can be conducted in English or French. Marine aims to offer a non-judgemental, open-minded environment where people can talk through difficult topics. She invites clients to explore meaning, choice and responsibility at a pace that feels right for them.

Practical matters are handled simply: therapy follows a conversational style, tailored to each person. People are encouraged to reach out to discuss how the work might look and whether it feels like a good fit.

How Marine’s approaches translate to online work

Marine integrates psychoanalytic, existential and cognitive-behavioural ideas into her work. Psychoanalytic ideas look at early patterns and how they show up now, helping people understand recurring relationship difficulties. Existential ideas focus on meaning, choice and responsibility, which can help when someone is questioning identity or life direction. Cognitive-behavioural techniques look at current thoughts and behaviours and offer practical ways to reduce anxiety and low mood.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapy process. Marine works collaboratively to decide what elements fit a person’s goals and preferences. Together they try things, check what helps, and adapt the plan as needed so the work stays useful and relevant.

The original profile does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm which options are available before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, save travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people keep therapy going while they balance work or other commitments. Registered or accredited professionals can tailor sessions to focus on emotion, interpersonal patterns or practical skills depending on what a client wants to work on.
