About Marjorie

Marjorie Ann Robinson, LICSW, helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by anger, stress, anxiety, or depression. She writes in plain terms and focuses on what is happening now, helping clients find steady ways to cope and move forward. Her approach is warm and practical, suited to someone who wants direct, compassionate help.

Marjorie works from a faith-informed, client-centered stance. Sessions focus on communication, self-love, and building small daily habits that ease intensity. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance-based methods to help people notice patterns and try new responses.

She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills for emotion regulation and grounding. That can be helpful when strong feelings feel overwhelming or when people get stuck in cycles of shame and guilt. Existential ideas are used too, to clarify meaning and life purpose when clients feel adrift.

Her background includes 14 years of counseling experience in Alabama and practice as a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. Marjorie supports clients dealing with trauma, grief, obsessive-compulsive behaviors, seasonal mood shifts, and challenges related to body image and addiction recovery.

In sessions she aims to create a steady, nonjudgmental space for practical work. Conversations move from understanding the problem to trying small, concrete changes. People who want a collaborative therapist who combines empathy with clear tools may find this approach helpful.

How this practice uses therapy approaches online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that align with their values. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, and struggles with motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and changing behavior through small experiments and skills practice, which often helps with anxiety, depression, and obsessive patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication, useful when anger or emotional reactivity is a core concern.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, preferences, and current needs. That means trying a few strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than committing to a single path up front.

Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, since the biography does not list them. Online options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time from the schedule. Therapists commonly use these conveniences to keep progress steady while adapting exercises and homework to the realities of daily life.
