About Marguerite
Marguerite Wilcox is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over three decades in social work and more than 20 years providing psychotherapy. She draws on practical approaches to help people cope with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, addiction, and relationship stress. Marguerite emphasizes clear, doable steps so people can move forward even when life feels overwhelming.
She practices from a cognitive behavioral framework that addresses both thoughts and actions. Mindfulness and increased awareness are part of her day-to-day work with clients. She also uses other approaches when a person needs or prefers them, tailoring choices to each situation.
Sessions often include skill practice between meetings so progress can be tracked and applied to real life. Homework is used to build insight and reinforce new patterns of behavior. Marguerite aims to help people notice small changes that add up to meaningful improvement.
Her experience has involved community and hospital settings, where she has supported people facing complex life events and medical-related stress. She strives to create a collaborative relationship where the person's goals guide the work.
Marguerite encourages people to pick a therapist who feels like the right fit and welcomes suggestions about how therapy should be done. She frames change as a series of small steps and offers steady support as clients practice new skills and meet their goals.
How therapy approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, listening environment where the person’s goals lead the work. It helps when someone needs a therapist who follows their pace and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts and actions and teaches practical exercises to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skill-building in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with intense emotions and relationship challenges.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with the person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. That decision can shift over time as issues change and progress is made.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people practice skills in the settings where they live and work. For example, virtual meetings can reduce travel time and help someone keep regular appointments during a hectic day. Licensed professionals adapt exercises, homework, and skill practice so online sessions remain focused and practical.
