About Nanine
Nanine "Marie" Dickson is a licensed counselor from Texas with twelve years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and life transitions. Marie aims to help people spot practical choices and small changes that improve daily life.
Marie draws on Attachment-based approaches to help clients understand patterns in relationships and how early bonds shape current reactions. She also uses Client-Centered ways of working to listen, reflect, and follow the client's pace.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy methods are used when clients want concrete tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Her background includes a master's degree in Education and Counseling and many years in education before moving into clinical work. That mix of classroom and counseling experience shapes a practical, down-to-earth style.
Sessions focus on identifying strengths already in a person's life and building on them. In sessions Marie helps people map choices, set manageable goals, and practice new habits between meetings. She uses simple exercises and short coaching-style conversations when appropriate.
The work is geared toward real-life improvements rather than long lectures. People who prefer clear steps and a collaborative approach may find this style helpful. The focus is on present concerns like parenting stress, work pressure, relationship problems, grief, and mood challenges.
Marie communicates in plain language and keeps the work straightforward.

Online support
How attachment work and practical therapies translate online
Attachment-based work helps people notice how early relationship patterns affect current responses and closeness. In online sessions this often looks like talking through repeat interaction cycles and identifying new, safer ways to reach out or set boundaries.Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and moving at the client's pace. It gives space for the person to lead the conversation while the therapist reflects and asks questions that help clarify values and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy offers step-by-step tools to change thinking and behavior, useful for anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching concrete exercises to try between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. That might mean emphasizing attachment insights one week and practicing CBT skills the next.
Online therapy provides flexible ways to connect by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and deeper exercises. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or an option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or messaging can support quick coping strategies, brief check-ins, or ongoing reflection between scheduled meetings.
