Marie Evans is a dedicated mental health professional and hypnotherapist with over 25 years of experience supporting neurodivergent individuals and those healing from complex trauma. She began her career as a Qualified Mental Health Professional and as a special education teacher. She holds a Bachelor’s in Psychology from Virginia Tech, a Master’s in Special Education (M.Ed.) from Regent University, and a Master’s in Social Work (MSW) from Liberty University. Now as a Clinical Social Work Resident, Marie specializes in Somatic Psychotherapy, HypnoBreathwork, and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), offering a holistic, body-centered approach to healing that helps clients reconnect with themselves and move beyond traditional talk therapy.

Passionate about the power of feeling emotions and sensations in the body, Marie guides clients to release trauma, break self-sabotaging patterns, and cultivate emotional resilience. In addition to ART and HypnoBreathwork, Marie specializes in inner child healing, somatic healing, and intensive healing sessions designed for deep, lasting transformation. Marie works with individuals creating a safe, inclusive space for first responders, survivors of abuse, and members of the poly and kink communities.

Outside of the therapy room, Marie is a proud mom to three grown children who are her world and to Ellie, the beloved German Shepherd who holds the title of “baby of the family.” In addition, Marie enjoys researching, traveling, and being in nature.
