About Marjorie

Marjorie Alexander is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Illinois with five years of professional experience. She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and major life changes. Her work also covers issues such as postpartum depression, body image, blended family concerns, and isolation.

Marjorie keeps conversations straightforward and focused on practical next steps. She uses methods from client-centered work and cognitive behavioral ideas to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try small changes. She also draws on emotionally focused and solution-focused approaches when relationships or problem-solving are central.

Sessions tend to prioritize clear goals. Many clients start with one or two immediate problems they want to reduce, like panic in social situations or trouble adjusting after a life transition. From there she might introduce mindfulness exercises to calm intense feelings or short behavioral experiments to test new ways of coping.

Her background includes five years in clinical practice working with adults on women’s issues, young adult concerns, and the emotional effects of guilt, shame, and forgiveness. Marjorie describes her style as respectful and sensitive and adapts sessions to the person sitting across from her.

She works in English and accepts international clients. If someone wants to begin, she asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session so they can agree on goals and the practical plan moving forward.

BHow sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Marjorie draws on client-centered work to create a steady, listening-focused framework. That approach centers the conversation on the person’s priorities and helps clarify what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, provides concrete tools to spot and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, low mood, and adjusting to life changes. She also uses emotionally focused ideas when relationship patterns or strong feelings are the main issue. That work looks at how emotions drive interaction and helps people try different responses in real situations. Choosing the right mix of these approaches is a collaborative process; she will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels practical for the client before suggesting a plan. The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing commute time and allowing appointments during workday breaks. Some approaches, like short CBT exercises or mindfulness practices, can be adapted to shorter check-ins or off-camera phone conversations when needed. The focus is on finding workable steps that fit daily life and the client’s schedule.
