Garrett Marple

Therapy for those who need real change

Hi! I'm Garrett. I'm a licensed therapist, and I help people experience real and permanent healing from a variety of mental health issues, from trauma and anxiety, to ADHD and beyond.

Currently only accepting virtual clients in Maryland.

Let's get right down to it

Something within you is struggling. Whether its anxiety, trauma, your neurodivergence, mood, or family relationships, something needs to change. My approach? In order to change yourself, you first need to truly understand how you came to be this way. Everything that makes you, you: family history, learning style,sexuality, race, gender, and the way that these things interact with the society and culture you live in.

My go-to framework for untangling it is Internal Family Systems, which sounds strange until you hear a little more about the central idea: Our minds are not one solid thing, but rather an entire system of different parts. Many of these parts have taken on a specific job to help us get through life. You might recognize a few:

  • the overachiever
  • the critic
  • the people-pleaser
  • the one who cancels plans
  • the 2 a.m. worrier

Instead of going to war with the parts of you that are anxious, critical, or overwhelmed, we get to know them. We figure out why they’re working so hard, and help them finally be free.
