Working with Marnie was an absolute pleasure! I read the numerous reviews which noted her “quirkiness” and I was intrigued! Personally, my husband and I appreciated that quality in Marnie! At a tense time of doubt and uncertainty, her ability to be straight forward yet quirky... was absolutely refreshing! Now, onto the part that really made an impact on my husband and I... Marnie’s insight was amazing! My husband and I did not know what to expect (this being our first marriage counseling session, ever)! Marnie has a very unique way of explaining things. I (wifey) am never at a loss for words but, I found myself listening to Marnie very intently! My husband was too! We both left our session (which was done remotely, being that we do not reside in Nevada) with a MUCH BETTER understanding of our situation! I felt as though we left the session with a clear realization of what we needed to do, so that we could start to heal and repair. I can’t even really explain how we felt afterward... a sense of peace, in a way, that we both were responsible for our situation yet without the anger, finger pointing and blame. It was simply an awakening! One session made a difference! ONE! My husband and I have some work to do but... Marnie has given us a start! She provided us with tools to begin moving our relationship in the RIGHT direction! I am very anxious to have another session with Marnie (hopefully, within the coming week). And maybe even a few more after that! She’s definitely a gem!! I am beyond thrilled that we found her!! Thank you so much, Marnie... for your keen insight, your ability to unite my husband and I in our views and understanding and your immeasurable knowledge! You certainly know your stuff!!! Thank you!!! ♥️

Meeting Mrs. Macauley for the first time, was heart warming. She took the time and explained all her credentials about her history. She understood all our concerns and guided us to positivity in our relationship.

I’ve sat in many therapy sessions and none of them have stunned me the way Marnie has. Her methods are no where near commercial and I love it. My wife and I had our 1st session and it was out of this world. She’s hands down the best marriage counselor we’ve been to. Yea it has only been 1 session but that one session has unlocked so many closed doors in my marriage that my wife and I finally agreed on something, Marnie is the one to save our marriage and we are beyond thrilled to have meet her. We are going to continue to work with Marnie as she works on us. She focused on our marriage and on us as individuals and put things into prospective. Neither of us can’t wait until our next session. Thank you Marnie for the realness, directness, up front, and openness that you bring to the table. We both wish we had found you years ago.

My fiancé and I are using her for premarital and family therapy. It has been helpful to build our relationship stronger. She is very animated and funny which has made it less intimidating speaking with her and discussing our struggles.

You are both a joy and so excited about working with you so that when you step down that aisle -- it will be pure magic. (INVITE ME. BRING ME FOOD.) LUYVA, MM

My fiance and had our first counseling session ever and Marnie made us feel so comfortable. She hit the nail on the head with only our first session. She gave us homework for the week and hopefully next week we can dive in more.

You are both a pleasure! Looking forward to our next session. Luvya, MM
