Marble Wellness

What Marble Wellness does

Marble Wellness is a privately held outpatient mental health therapy practice headquartered in Ballwin, Missouri, founded and owned by Stephanie Korpal, M.Ed., LPC-S, with a second physical office in O'Fallon (Lake St. Louis) and service delivery extending to telehealth across Missouri and Illinois. The practice operates with a roster of 13 licensed therapists organized under Clinical Director Kristi Machica, plus a Client Care Coordinator, and is supported by a content-driven go-to-market built on blog/SEO, an email newsletter with a free workbook lead magnet, social media, and webinars that feed into a Calendly-based free 15-minute consultation intake.

The clinical offering is organized around evidence-based modalities including EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Play Therapy, the Gottman Method, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and trauma-focused and somatic techniques. Services are packaged by population and condition: anxiety, depression, grief, chronic illness, trauma/PTSD, couples/marriage counseling, child and play therapy (ages 3+), teen therapy, counseling for moms (including postpartum), therapy for adult men, and group therapy/support groups. Delivery is multi-modal across in-person offices, statewide telehealth, and outdoor park walking therapy in St. Louis parks. Niche capabilities include Mandarin/Japanese multilingual therapy, art-in-therapy, and Registered Play Therapy supervision.

The business model is fee-for-service, charging clients per session across individual, couples, child, and group formats. On the supply side, therapist compensation is structured at approximately $45-$85 per session with stated annual earning potential of $52,000-$100,000+, indicating therapists carry meaningful caseloads while the practice retains the client relationship and billing. No external funding, parent company, or holding structure is disclosed; ownership is concentrated with the founder, and there are no patents, certifications, or regulatory actions on record. Geographic scope is limited to two physical locations in the St. Louis metro plus Missouri/Illinois telehealth, and marketing is primarily organic and local rather than national.

Others

• Alma: A platform that supports independent therapy practices with insurance billing, credentialing, and client referrals. Comparable to Marble as a peer in the "private therapy practice" category, but positioned as enabling infrastructure for solo and small-group practices rather than competing directly.
• Headway: A platform that helps private-practice therapists accept insurance and manage billing/credentialing. Comparable to Marble because many private practices of Marble's size use Headway to scale insurance billing without adding administrative headcount — an enabling layer rather than direct competitor.

Broad incumbents

• BetterHelp: The largest online therapy platform, offering individual, couples, and teen therapy via subscription messaging and live sessions. Comparable as a therapy service provider targeting similar client demographics (anxiety, depression, relationships, trauma), but at national scale, fully virtual, and with a fundamentally different cost structure.
• LifeStance Health: One of the largest outpatient mental health platforms in the U.S., operating a national network of in-person clinics and telehealth services for anxiety, depression, trauma, and couples therapy. Comparable to Marble Wellness in core service mix (psychotherapy across multiple specialties), but operates at vastly greater scale with insurance contracts and a publicly traded parent.
• Talkspace: A publicly traded online therapy and psychiatry platform offering video, audio, and text-based therapy with insurance and employer partnerships. Comparable service categories (individual therapy, couples, teens) but delivered entirely virtually and at scale — represents the digital competitive threat to local practices.

Emerging players

• Charlie Health: A virtual intensive outpatient program (IOP) provider primarily serving adolescents, young adults, and families with mental health and substance-use concerns. Comparable to Marble in targeting teens/young adults and offering evidence-based therapy (DBT, EMDR, family work), but at higher acuity and fully virtual.
• Brightside Health: A telehealth mental health provider offering therapy and psychiatry for anxiety and depression, including medication management. Comparable to Marble in addressing anxiety, depression, and trauma, but combines therapy with prescribing and operates nationally via telehealth.
• Grow Therapy: A therapist network platform that helps independent and group practices accept insurance and find clients. Comparable to Marble in that it operates a marketplace/operating layer over licensed therapists delivering in-person and telehealth care, with comparable modalities and populations served.

Direct peers

• Octave: A therapy practice group operating hybrid in-person and virtual clinics across multiple U.S. cities with employed clinicians and evidence-based specialty programs (anxiety, depression, relationships). Closest business-model peer to Marble — owned clinics, employed therapists, multi-modality delivery — but at larger multi-city scale.
• Two Chairs: A therapy practice chain with hybrid in-person and virtual therapy across multiple states, emphasizing matched-therapist model, evidence-based modalities (CBT, EMDR, etc.), and specialty offerings similar to Marble's. Two Chairs is a closer business-model peer than platform-only competitors because it operates owned clinics staffed by employed therapists.
