About Maryleigh
Maryleigh King is a licensed clinical social worker who helps adults facing big life changes and emotional challenges. She works with people dealing with relationship struggles, grief, stress, anxiety, depression, and issues with coping or self-worth. Maryleigh brings a calm, engaged presence and aims to make therapy feel approachable and straightforward.
She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at how emotions shape close connections and to improve how people relate to themselves and others.
Background and approach
She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice unhelpful patterns and try new ways of responding. Sessions are conversational and focused on practical steps that fit each person’s life. Maryleigh earned a Master of Social Work from Michigan State University and holds an MI LMSW.
She has six years of clinical experience supporting adults through grief, trauma, relationship conflict, addiction concerns, and career transitions. That background informs a flexible, down-to-earth style rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. In sessions she aims to be present, compassionate, and genuine while helping people build skills for everyday challenges.
Therapy can include short-term problem solving or longer work on deeper patterns, depending on what a person wants. People can expect clear goals, emotional validation, and practical tools for coping and growth. Maryleigh encourages collaboration so therapy matches each person’s needs and pace.

Online support
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on emotions and patterns in relationships. Online sessions use conversation and exercises to help people notice and change interaction patterns and deepen emotional understanding. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters and take committed action even when uncomfortable feelings show up, often using short experiential exercises and values-based planning. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and partnering with the client to set the pace and direction of work.Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Maryleigh will talk with each person about goals, life circumstances, and preferences, and then recommend a mix of methods that fit. The plan can change as needs shift and progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people work face to face when that helps, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break, live chat is useful for quick check-ins, and messaging allows ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to choose what works best for day-to-day needs.
