About Maryleigh
Maryleigh King is a licensed Master of Social Work with six years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing relationship struggles, grief, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Her tone is warm and direct, and she aims to make therapy feel approachable and useful from the first session.
Maryleigh helps people untangle unhealthy coping patterns and rebuild confidence. She supports those navigating career change, parenting stress, and the effects of trauma and loss.
Background and approach
Conversations focus on practical steps and clearer choices rather than jargon. Her background includes a Master of Social Work degree from Michigan State University and practice in Michigan. Maryleigh combines several therapeutic approaches to meet individual needs.
She draws on methods that emphasize emotion, behavior, and relationship patterns to shape sessions intentionally. In sessions she listens closely and helps clients set small, achievable goals. Work may include noticing harmful thinking, practicing new communication habits, or developing coping tools for intense emotions.
The pace is collaborative and guided by each person’s priorities. Maryleigh also pays attention to issues like compassion fatigue, codependency, and end-of-life concerns. She describes therapy as a partnership where people learn skills and try them between meetings.
Her style is present, compassionate, and focused on helping clients move forward. Clients can expect straightforward language, concrete strategies, and a focus on real-life changes rather than abstract theory.

Online support
Approaches that guide online sessions
Maryleigh uses the Gottman Method to look at relationship patterns, communication, and emotional connection in clear, practical terms that translate well to conversations online. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify values and take small steps toward a meaningful life while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings.She combines these approaches with a client-centered stance that keeps sessions collaborative. Together the therapist and client decide which methods to try and adjust the plan over time based on what helps most. Finding the right mix is part of the work rather than a one-time choice.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is helpful for longer therapy sessions and exercises that use facial expression and tone. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Shorter check-ins and coaching-style exchanges can be done by live chat or text, which fit around busy days or provide quick support between sessions.
These options make it easier to schedule care across time zones and different routines, while preserving a consistent therapeutic relationship with licensed professionals who tailor work to each person’s goals.
