About Marlene
Marlene Dmytryshyn is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with 40 years of professional experience. She works with people facing relationship strain, family conflict, grief and loss, intimacy-related concerns, and the stress of major life changes. Marlene writes plainly and focuses on practical steps clients can use right away.
She helps people name what feels overwhelming and then breaks issues into manageable parts. That may mean talking through recent losses, sorting feelings after a separation, or addressing ongoing family tensions. Marlene also supports people dealing with illness, caregiving stress, chronic pain, and end-of-life concerns.
Practical problem-solving is part of her approach. Sessions often focus on clearer communication, setting boundaries, and dealing with guilt, shame, or isolation. She can also work with issues such as abandonment, infidelity, and midlife questions about purpose and identity.
Marlene aims to match techniques to each person's situation rather than pushing a single method. She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide conversations and skills practice. Over decades of work she has helped people manage real-life pressures tied to relationships, health, and caregiving.
If someone is weighing therapy, she asks clients to start with a short questionnaire and then schedule a first meeting. That first session is used to clarify goals and figure out the most useful next steps.
BHow sessions work
How evidence-based methods translate to online sessions
Many of the techniques Marlene uses are grounded in evidence-based therapeutic approaches. Cognitive-behavioral elements focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce distress and improve communication. These techniques are useful for anxiety about relationships, grief reactions, and managing daily caregiving stress.Another common approach is problem-solving therapy, which breaks down overwhelming problems into concrete steps and priorities. This can help people manage chronic illness demands, navigate divorce logistics, or reduce the weight of caregiving tasks. Both methods emphasize practical exercises you can try between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marlene will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals and lifestyle. She assesses needs in the first session and adjusts methods as progress and preferences become clearer.
The site offers online scheduling and a short matching questionnaire to begin. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so appointments are simpler to keep.
