Marguerite Wilcox , LCSW

Marguerite Wilcox is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 33 years of professional experience who has spent more than two decades providing psychotherapy to individuals, couples, and families. She has worked alongside clients in community settings and in hospitals, supporting people as they cope with depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, addiction, grief, and the many challenges life can present.

Her practice is grounded in a cognitive behavior framework, which means she addresses both thoughts and behaviors and emphasizes mindfulness and awareness as important tools for change. She also draws on additional therapeutic modalities when a client’s needs or preferences suggest a different approach. Wilcox brings empathy and a hopeful orientation to her work, helping clients build positive patterns and practical skills to reach their goals.

She frequently assigns between-session exercises to promote insight and to track progress, viewing therapy as a collaborative journey in which the client’s priorities shape the process. Wilcox encourages clients to take gradual steps toward change and remains supportive throughout the ups and downs that accompany personal growth.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Marguerite Wilcox commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and client-centered therapy in her work. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers practical strategies for managing anxiety, depression, stress, and unhelpful habits. Client-centered therapy emphasizes the therapist’s empathy and the client’s own resources, creating a supportive space for exploring relationship, family, and identity concerns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Wilcox works with each person to determine which methods match their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, and she adapts techniques as progress unfolds so therapy stays focused and relevant.

Online therapy with Marguerite can take place by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or mobility limits. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, practice skills between sessions, and access therapeutic support from familiar environments while working with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor treatment to individual needs.
