Rieke Herrmann Marzouki, LMFT
Somatic-informed therapist focused on practical change
About Rieke
Rieke Herrmann Marzouki is a licensed marriage and family therapist who centers somatic awareness in her work. She draws on practical approaches to help people who feel stuck by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, or big life changes. Rieke speaks English and German and practices from Hawaii, bringing a calm, steady presence to sessions.
She focuses on relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, anger, and intimacy-related issues. She also supports people facing addictions, eating concerns, parenting strain, bipolar mood shifts, and compassion fatigue.
Background and approach
Her style is grounded and plainspoken; she treats clients as the experts on their lives while offering tools and steady guidance. Rieke combines body-centered methods with attachment and client-centered work. She uses cognitive-behavioral and dialectical approaches when helpful to manage difficult thoughts and strong emotions.
Sessions often mix discussion, simple body awareness, and practical skills to ease overwhelming moments. With five years of licensed practice and longer experience helping others, she aims to make therapy feel doable. Sessions are set up to match each person’s pace and goals.
Rieke encourages small steps and focuses on what can change in the present. Starting therapy begins with one short form and a first session to see how things feel. She works to create a space where people can talk honestly, try new ways of coping, and build more balance in daily life.
How therapeutic approaches fit into online care
Somatic work focuses on how the body holds feelings and tension. In online sessions this can mean simple breath, posture, and movement checks to help people notice where stress lives and how it shifts. Attachment-based work looks at how early and current relationships affect trust and closeness; online conversations use reflective listening and relational exploration to help people name patterns and try new ways of connecting.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to choose which methods feel most useful. That choice depends on the person’s goals, comfort with body-focused practices, and how they want to use skills between sessions.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options help people fit therapy around work, family, and life demands. They also make it possible to practice skills in real time and check in between longer sessions, which can support steady progress.
