About Marilyn

Marilyn Turneur is an Ohio-based licensed social worker (LISW) with 12 years of clinical experience helping people manage a wide range of concerns, including addictions, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and ADHD.

Background and approach

She focuses on guiding clients through relationship difficulties, parenting challenges, career transitions, anger, compassion fatigue, and other life changes while holding respect for each person’s story and cultural background. Her style emphasizes collaboration and empathy, creating an affirming space where clients can explore patterns, strengthen self-esteem, and build practical skills.

Marilyn integrates evidence-based methods such as cognitive behavioral strategies, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and trauma-informed work to support recovery and growth. She aims to help clients identify strengths, set realistic goals, and make sustainable changes that fit their daily lives.

People who seek her care can expect a professional who balances warmth with clinical expertise, offering structured tools alongside attentive listening. Whether addressing intimacy-related issues, addiction recovery, or coping with stress and life transitions, Marilyn approaches each case with individualized care and a focus on practical outcomes.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Marilyn frequently uses cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness techniques as part of her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and replacing them with practical strategies to change mood and functioning, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and addictive behaviors. Mindfulness therapy emphasizes present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance, offering tools to reduce stress and improve emotional regulation.

She also draws on motivational interviewing to support readiness for change by exploring ambivalence and strengthening personal motivation. Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process; the therapist and client will discuss needs, goals, and preferences and may combine methods to find what works best for the individual.

Online therapy with this clinician is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it possible to continue consistent work from home or another convenient location, maintain momentum between sessions, and access care when in-person visits are not practical.
