About Marjorie
Marjorie Alexander, LCSW, helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and major life changes. She offers a calm, respectful presence and focuses on clients' immediate concerns. Her approach aims to make the first steps feel manageable and clear.
Marjorie works in a conversational, client-centered way that places the person's goals first. She listens closely and adapts sessions to each person's needs. Practical tools from cognitive behavioral ideas and mindfulness are offered when they fit the situation.
She also draws on emotionally-focused and solution-focused methods to help people improve communication and resolve specific problems. These approaches can be useful for managing feelings tied to relationship struggles, blended family issues, or postpartum adjustment. Marjorie helps people notice patterns, set small goals, and try new ways of responding.
Clients may bring concerns about body image, guilt and shame, isolation, or women's issues. Marjorie tends to break concerns into steps so progress feels trackable and realistic. She places emphasis on self-compassion and building skills that carry over into daily life.
Marjorie holds a Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential in Illinois and has five years of professional experience. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire to get started. International clients who speak English may participate.
How these approaches translate to online therapy
Client-centered work puts the person's priorities first by focusing on what matters most to them in each session. This means conversations are guided by the client's goals, and the therapist adjusts tone and pace to fit the person's needs.Cognitive behavioral techniques look at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Online sessions can include practical exercises, simple behavioral experiments, and homework to help change unhelpful patterns. These tools are often used for anxiety, stress, and low self-esteem.
Emotionally-focused ideas help people identify and name strong emotions and learn new ways to respond in close relationships. In remote sessions, this work can support clearer communication and reducing emotional reactivity.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of therapy. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick approaches that match their goals, preferences, and life demands. That may mean combining client-centered listening with CBT strategies or adding mindfulness practices for stress management.
