About Marguerite

Marguerite Wilcox is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 33 years of experience. She uses an approachable style that helps people sort through stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and relationship concerns. Her manner is warm and practical, and she encourages clients to take small steps toward clearer thinking and better coping.

She often draws on existential ideas to help people find meaning when life feels uncertain. That perspective pairs with client-centered care that keeps the person's goals at the center of each session.

Background and approach

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a core part of her work, so thought patterns and everyday behaviors are talked through and adjusted together. Marguerite has long given structured tools between sessions, such as practical exercises or reflection tasks, so progress can be tracked. These simple assignments help bring what’s discussed in session into daily life.

She values mindfulness and awareness as steady supports for change. Her practice addresses a wide range of concerns, including parenting stress, family conflict, intimacy issues, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, ADHD, substance use, and career struggles. She also helps people facing aging and caregiver stress, blended family challenges, body image and communication problems.

Clients can expect straightforward conversation, goal-setting, and step-by-step plans. Marguerite invites input on how therapy should run and adapts methods to fit each person's needs. She aims to make therapy a joint effort toward real, manageable change.

Online support

How existential and practical approaches work online

Existential Therapy helps people face big life questions and uncertainty by focusing on personal meaning, choice, and responsibility. It can be useful for grief, major life changes, or when someone feels stuck or adrift.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person’s own goals and experience. The therapist listens with empathy and shapes sessions around what matters most to the client, which supports trust and self-directed growth.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to shift unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with daily stressors.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust over time. That teamwork helps identify which combination of existential reflection, client-centered listening, and CBT tools works best for each person.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let the therapist and client keep visual cues for fuller conversations. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, journaling-style exchanges, or when a shorter touchpoint fits a busy day.
