About Marguerite
Marguerite Wilcox is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 33 years of experience and a long history of providing psychotherapy that emphasizes practical thinking and mindful awareness.
Background and approach
She centers her work on cognitive-behavioral ideas that link thoughts and actions, and she often blends other methods such as dialectical strategies and trauma-focused techniques when they suit a client's needs. Her approach aims to help people strengthen coping skills, manage mood and stress, and address concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, addiction, grief, and relationship strain.
She has supported individuals, couples, and families through life transitions and complex emotional challenges across community and hospital settings in Louisiana. Wilcox describes therapy as a collaborative journey in which clients set goals and engage in skill-building between sessions; she frequently assigns practical homework to track progress and deepen insight.
Grounded in empathy, she works to cultivate resilience and positive change while adapting methods to each person’s preferences and circumstances.
Integrating evidence-based approaches with online care
Marguerite Wilcox draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and practice new behaviors, a method useful for anxiety, mood concerns, and stress management. She also uses dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with relationship conflicts, intense emotions, and coping strategies. When trauma is central, she may incorporate elements of trauma-focused work to address painful memories and reduce their impact on daily functioning.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She works together with each person to clarify goals, try methods, and adjust the plan based on what resonates and produces measurable change. Clients can expect to discuss preferences and receive practical exercises that support progress between sessions.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels with technology. These options make it easier to access consistent care from Louisiana without rearranging daily life, while maintaining a focus on skills practice, goal tracking, and ongoing therapeutic collaboration.
