Marguerite Wilcox, LCSW

Marguerite Wilcox is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 33 years of professional experience. She practices in Louisiana and focuses on helping people manage anxiety, depression, stress, and major life transitions. Her work often addresses relationships, parenting concerns, addiction, grief, and midlife questions that come up as life shifts.

She uses a cognitive behavior framework that links thoughts and behaviors. That approach is paired with mindfulness to help people notice patterns and try different responses. She also brings in other methods when clients prefer a different way to work.

Sessions are collaborative and practical. She often suggests short exercises or “homework” between meetings to build skills and track progress. These tasks are meant to generate insight and make therapy feel useful outside the session.

Marguerite emphasizes client choice. She invites feedback about the pace and direction of therapy so the work matches each person’s needs. The aim is steady, manageable change - one small step at a time.

Her background includes clinical work in community and hospital settings. That range shapes a flexible approach to stress, trauma, caregiving strain, relationship problems, and other concerns people bring at midlife. She encourages people to pick a therapist who feels like a good fit and to be active in the process.

Online approaches grounded in behavior and awareness

Marguerite combines cognitive behavioral ideas with mindfulness and client-centered care to guide remote work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress. Mindfulness and client-centered work help people notice patterns, clarify values, and shape goals that feel meaningful in daily life.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and will suggest methods that fit. Clients are invited to give feedback so the plan can be adjusted over time.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and keeping continuity during life changes. Many people find it easier to attend regular meetings when scheduling is flexible. Confirm the session formats offered before booking to make sure they meet your needs, since available options are determined by the therapist. Online work can still include brief between-session exercises and goal tracking to apply skills to daily routines.
