About Marilyn
Marilyn DeLuera is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Florida with 14 years of experience. She works with people facing trauma, grief, parenting challenges, low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, stress, relationship and family issues, and related mood and life-change concerns.
She favors a person-centered approach that keeps the client at the center of sessions. In practice that means listening first, then helping people identify strengths and next steps. Sessions often revisit past events to understand current patterns and to find small, practical changes that make daily life easier.
Marilyn draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect present connections. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. Narrative therapy helps people reframe their stories so they notice resources and choices they missed before.
Her work includes support for people coping with caregiving demands, abandonment, codependency, control issues, domestic violence effects, and compassion fatigue. She also addresses concerns such as ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, disruptive mood dysregulation disorder, isolation, guilt, and aging-related stress.
Sessions are straightforward and practical. Marilyn aims to help people find clearer thinking, steadier mood management, and better communication. She encourages realistic goals and small experiments that fit everyday life.
BHow sessions work
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Marilyn commonly blends attachment-based work and cognitive behavioral approaches in session. Attachment-based therapy looks at how early relationships shape current closeness and trust, which can help with relationship problems, abandonment feelings, and caregiver stress. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management.Finding the right approach is part of the first sessions. Marilyn will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and daily life. She uses conversations and short exercises to see what helps, and adjusts approaches based on what the client finds most useful.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, family, and caregiving responsibilities. They can allow shorter check-ins, avoid travel time, and let people join from wherever they are logging in. Discuss practical preferences during the matching questionnaire so sessions match scheduling needs and comfort with different styles.
