I'm Marlo Sell, LCMHC — a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor with over a decade of experience helping women move from the patterns that exhaust them to lives that finally feel like their own.

I specialize in trauma, nervous system healing, and deep relational work that changes not just how you feel — but how you move through the world.

This is not traditional therapy. I work somatically, with the body and the nervous system as much as the mind. Every session is built around one question: what does this woman need to actually change — not just understand?

I didn't come to this work from a textbook.

I came to it the same way many of the women I work with come to me. Through years of doing everything right on the outside while something underneath kept pulling me back. Patterns in relationships. In how much of myself I gave away while calling it love. In a nervous system so conditioned to survive that peace felt like something other people had.

I did the work. The deep, uncomfortable, sacred work of going underneath it all — learning to recognize the patterns, understand where they came from, calm a nervous system that had forgotten how to rest. That work changed everything.

It's why Soluna exists.

Not as a service. Not as a practice. As a space for women who are ready to stop managing their pain and start transforming through it.

This work is personal to me. And if you're here, I believe it's personal to you too.

MY APPROACH

I bring together over a decade of clinical experience with a framework I call the ILI Method — Illuminate, Liberate, Integrate — a three-phase approach designed to go where traditional therapy often doesn't.

Illuminate — We bring compassionate awareness to the patterns, wounds, and protective parts that have been quietly running the show. Not to judge them. To finally see them clearly.

Liberate — We do the actual work of release. Through somatic practice, parts work, and nervous system healing — not just insight, but embodied change. The kind you can feel.

Integrate — We ground what's shifted into your real life, your relationships, your sense of self, until new ways of being feel natural rather than forced.

This work is active. Experiential. It asks something of you.

That's exactly why it works.

MY MODALITIES

Trained across multiple healing modalities, including:

• IFS-Informed — Internal Family Systems / Parts Work

• Somatic & Body-Based Healing — working with the nervous system, not just the narrative

• Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) — expanded-state healing for deep trauma processing

• Mindfulness-Based Approaches

• Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

I work with a small number of clients at a time — by design. This work demands full presence. I'm not scaling volume. I'm going deep.

WHAT I BELIEVE

Healing is not about becoming someone new. It's about finally becoming who you actually are.

The patterns that have been running your life aren't failures. They're protective strategies that made perfect sense — once. The work is learning to recognize them, honor what they protected you from, and choose something different.

Real transformation happens in the body, not just the mind. In the nervous system, not just the narrative.

And it is absolutely possible for you.
