she/her/hers
Psychotherapist
Marilyn Hansen Beck is a psychotherapist at Bhava Therapy Group, serving clients in White Plains, Westchester County, Manhattan and through online therapy. She earned her Master’s in Counseling for Mental Health and Wellness from New York University and, before becoming a therapist, built a career in public accounting. That professional background informs her grounded, practical approach to therapy. Marilyn works with emerging adults and adults navigating anxiety and stress, depression, intense emotions, relationship difficulties, life transitions, complex PTSD, trauma recovery, ADHD, and women’s mental health concerns.
My Approach
Marilyn's work is relational, humanistic, and trauma informed, with an emphasis on attachment-based therapy and the ways early experiences continue to shape us throughout life. She draws from psychodynamic therapy, mindfulness-based approaches, breathwork, CBT, ACT, and DBT, tailoring individual therapy to each person rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. Whether meeting in person in White Plains or through online therapy, Marilyn helps clients discover what feels true and meaningful to them, use their voice, and create lasting change.
What To Expect
When working with Marilyn, clients can expect heart, humility, and genuine curiosity in every session. Clients often describe her as warm, down to earth, and easy to talk to, and she values authenticity and, when appropriate, a little humor. At Bhava Therapy Group's White Plains office or through online therapy sessions, Marilyn believes healing happens through real human connection. Her hope is that every client feels understood, supported, and reminded of how much they matter as they move toward greater healing and growth.
