Marsha Litton-Baker, LPC

Marsha Litton-Baker is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 15 years of practice in Tennessee. She focuses on practical steps that help people manage stress and anxiety and build stronger day-to-day coping skills.

Her work often addresses grief and loss, parenting challenges, anger, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. She values each person as the expert on their own story and looks for strengths to build on. Marsha aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable and supported.

In sessions she uses approaches grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, attachment ideas, and client-centered listening. That means she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, connect patterns in relationships, and steer conversations toward what the client wants to change. Conversations are straightforward and focused on practical next steps.

She also draws on emotionally focused techniques and mindfulness to help people calm strong emotions and stay present during hard moments. This combination can help with family-related stress, chronic life changes, body image, and coping during illness or caregiver strain.

Marsha works with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, ADHD, career stress, and compassion fatigue. Her style is supportive and empowering, aimed at helping people move toward clearer goals and healthier routines.

To begin, she encourages a simple first step: share your story, identify one small goal, and try a few strategies together to see what fits.

Online approaches that help you make practical change

Marsha uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors that reduce anxiety, improve mood, or change relationship patterns. CBT is hands-on and often includes small tasks between sessions to test new ways of thinking.

She also incorporates Attachment-Based and Client-Centered ideas, focusing on how relationship patterns shape feelings and choices. Attachment approaches look at patterns formed in relationships, while client-centered work emphasizes listening and following the client's goals and priorities.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Marsha collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their situation and preferences, and she adjusts plans based on what helps most. That way therapy stays practical and goal-focused rather than one-size-fits-all.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make counseling more flexible. Video is useful for deeper conversations and visual cues, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat or text can work for short check-ins or coaching-style support. These options help people fit sessions into busy lives and keep progress moving between appointments.
