Marie Zeledon understands what it’s like to live disconnected from one's body, voice, and sense of self. Her counseling journey began not in a clinic, but in the high-pressure world of fashion and creative direction in New York City—where perfectionism, overwork, and emotional exhaustion were the norm. When the pace and pressure caught up with her, Marie found herself turning inward—and what she discovered through mindfulness changed everything.
Now, as a bilingual, bicultural therapist, Marie brings that same transformational lens to her work with clients. She offers a grounded, compassionate presence to children, teens, adults, couples, and families navigating trauma, life transitions, emotional overwhelm, or spiritual awakening. Her approach is holistic, creative, and deeply intuitive—blending clinical expertise with soul-centered practices.
Marie works exceptionally well with highly sensitive individuals, creatives, and those seeking something more than traditional talk therapy. Her work is both gentle and profound, guiding clients toward embodiment, emotional release, and a deeper connection to their inner wisdom.
Clients describe Marie as warm, attuned, and deeply validating. Whether you’re processing grief, navigating identity, or trying to reconnect with your authentic self, Marie meets you with kindness and calm, helping you move forward with more clarity and compassion.
