Marie Silva, LCSW

Marie Silva is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Texas with 24 years of experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship strain, parenting pressures, and low self-esteem. She also focuses on compassion fatigue and mood concerns.

Marie centers short, practical conversations that help people manage day-to-day problems. She listens for strengths in a person’s life and points out steps that can be tried between sessions. Sessions are straightforward and aim to reduce overwhelm so clients can handle work, family, and money demands more clearly.

Her approach blends methods from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to help people notice thoughts and try different responses. She also uses acceptance and commitment therapy ideas to clarify personal values and emotionally-focused techniques to look at relational patterns. Those tools are selected to match whatever the person wants to change.

Clients can expect an emphasis on what is useful now - concrete skills for anxiety, ways to grieve and move forward, and communication strategies for relationship problems. Marie encourages small, manageable steps rather than big overhauls. Progress is tracked over regular conversations and practical homework when it helps.

She practices in Texas and holds the LCSW credential. Her work suits someone who wants a clear, steady counselor to help sort priorities, reduce distressing symptoms, and build realistic coping strategies for everyday life.
