About Marjorie

Marjorie Stewart is a Florida LMHC - Licensed Mental Health Counselor - with 25 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, coping with life changes, coaching, and parenting. Marjorie writes plainly and listens directly, offering clear feedback and practical steps in conversation.

She keeps sessions relaxed and straightforward. People can ask direct questions and expect honest, no-frills responses. Marjorie often helps clients talk through what to say, practice communication, and develop skills to manage stress and anxiety.

Her background includes long-term work with a wide range of adults, including military members and their family members. That experience informs a pragmatic approach to relationship and family concerns, adoption and foster care issues, attachment and abandonment themes, and caregiving stress.

Marjorie uses several approaches to match different needs. She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. She uses elements of acceptance and commitment work to clarify values and focus action. Emotion-focused and dialectical strategies are brought in when emotions or relationship patterns need direct attention.

Sessions are conversational and skill-based. People leave with specific steps to try between meetings, whether that means short coaching tasks, communication exercises, or tools for handling intense feelings. Marjorie aims to be practical and direct while helping people manage everyday pressures and relationship strain.

How her clinical approaches guide online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and pick actions that align with what matters to them. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting thinking patterns that keep problems going and practicing different behaviors to change outcomes. It often helps with anxiety, low mood, and relationship reactions.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Marjorie will talk with the client about goals, try different techniques, and adjust what she uses based on what helps. That process may include practicing skills together, setting short coaching tasks, or working on communication exercises relevant to the client's life.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking to learn which options are available. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around school or work, reduce travel time, and allow quick check-ins between in-person commitments. It can also let people practice communication skills in conversations they expect to have soon. The focus is on practical help that fits into everyday routines rather than on any particular delivery method.
