About Marguerite

Marguerite Wilcox is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with decades of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, and relationship struggles. She uses clear, practical language and focuses on small steps that add up over time. Her approach aims to help people feel steadier and more able to handle daily pressures.

Marguerite leans on cognitive behavioral ideas to help clients notice how thoughts and actions affect feelings. She also uses mindfulness to bring attention to the present moment and reduce reactivity.

Background and approach

When appropriate, she draws on other approaches a client prefers to address trauma or deep emotional patterns. Sessions are collaborative. She encourages clients to set goals and takes an active role in tracking progress.

Homework between visits is common and meant to build skills and insight that carry into daily life. Over a long career Marguerite has worked in community and hospital settings and has supported people coping with life changes, caregiver stress, and blended family challenges. She pays attention to how family history and communication patterns shape current struggles.

Clients can expect an empathetic, straightforward clinician who emphasizes practical tools and steady progress. She invites feedback and adjusts methods to match each person's needs and preferences.

Approaches Marguerite names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist lists and does not check training records.

Online support

Approach-driven online care with practical tools

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to the person in front of her, helping shape goals that matter to the client and honoring personal values. This approach helps when someone needs support making decisions or wants a therapist who follows their lead.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and actions influence feelings and behavior. It is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday problems because it breaks big issues into manageable skills and small experiments.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers specific skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication. It can help when strong feelings, relationship conflicts, or impulsive behavior get in the way of daily life.

Finding the right approach is a process she handles with each client. The therapist will discuss goals, try options, and adjust methods based on what the client prefers and needs. That collaborative planning helps match techniques to real-life concerns rather than imposing one method.

Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone works well when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let people send short updates, ask questions between sessions, or use a written format that feels easier to express in. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent amid work, care duties, and life changes.
