About Marie Pierre-Canel

As a licensed therapist in Florida, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex life transitions, relationship dynamics, and personal growth. My professional background centers on addressing stress, anxiety, family conflicts, and interpersonal challenges with a compassionate, culturally responsive approach.

I bring a deep understanding of communication barriers, attachment dynamics, and emotional wellness. My practice focuses on helping clients work through isolation, body image concerns, caregiver stress, and relationship patterns. Drawing from evidence-based techniques, I create a supportive environment where individuals can explore their experiences and develop meaningful strategies for healing.

My multilingual background allows me to connect with diverse communities, offering therapy in English, French, and Haitian Creole. I am committed to honoring each client’s unique journey and providing personalized support that respects individual experiences and cultural contexts.

“I feel supported and heard. Marie-Pierre has a very caring presence and I appreciate her wisdom and appropriate questions and remarks. I feel that she provides me with a healing space in which to share my concerns and my fears and I feel encouraged to move forward in a positive direction.”

“She's a great listener and she always answers something thoughtful”

“Marie is s down to earth, a lovely and understanding woman. Therapy is often difficult but she always manages to find the positive side of everything and even makes me laugh which is very therapeutic as I am realizing now. She is very patient, gives good advices and mostly she LISTENS which make our conversation so much more productive. Another great quality that she possess is that she remembers the smallest little but important detail that I could have mentioned weeks earlier. With what I am going through at this time in my life, I sincerely wouldn't want another therapist but Marie. Merci Marie. Because of you, I am starting to see the light and I believe I will be a better person because of your help!”

“I’m satisfied and I recommand marie pierre-Canel”

“I've had 3 sessions with Marie Pierre-Canel so far and I really like her approach. I already feel some changes in my behavior, in my thoughts and in the way I see life. I will definitely continue this journey of personal growth with Marie's help.”

“Marie Pierre-Canel showed me that the guilt that I was carrying around is not even mine to carry. She created the space that I needed to be heard AND listened to without judgement. This freedom of expression opened a door for me to true introspection. I am grateful for my weekly coaching session with Marie. It helps me refocus on the new definition of life that I want for myself, without guilt.”

“Very knowledgeable”

“Super sweet and respectful, amazing advice and a wonderful person! My husband and I felt comfortable talking to her and we took the advice to heart. Highly reccommend!”

“I’ve only had one video session but after a few more I will be able to better answer this query.”

“She is extremely professional. She has a great sense of humour, which helps setting a lighter mood to the meetings. It makes it easier to talk. I had my meetings in french and we didn't have any difficulties understanding each other. She has giving some really good advice that have already helped. I wasn't sure at first about her coaching approach, but by the end of our first session, I was reassured seeing that she really knew what she was talking about and I could see how I could benefit from her.”

“I appreciate Marie Pierre's wise presence. She is a great listener and is able to push me to look at issues I may not realize at first, but then it forces me to take in new information and really ponder my choices. I trust her to be respectful and understanding and open minded. We can have a very productive and insightful dialogue on key issues. My week would not be as calm, if I did not have Marie Pierre as a guide and a support.”

“She’s amazing, great listener and give good advise. She’s giving good point of view and challenges you in all the best ways”
