About Marjorie

Marjorie George is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) in California with 13 years of experience. She focuses on building self-esteem, easing anxiety, and helping people manage stress and life changes. Her style is warm and respectful, and she aims to make beginning therapy feel manageable for someone taking a first step.

She uses a client-centered approach that puts the person's goals and experience at the center of sessions. That means conversations and plans are shaped around what matters most to the individual. She also draws on mindfulness practices to help people slow down, notice what they are feeling, and respond with more choice than habit.

Narrative work is part of her approach as well, helping people reframe their life stories and identify strengths that might be hidden by current struggles. Solution-focused techniques are used to set clear, short-term goals and build momentum between sessions. Trauma-focused tools may be included when past events are affecting daily life.

Marjorie often helps with workplace concerns, career decisions, and issues common to young adults. She also supports people dealing with body image, caregiver stress, guilt and shame, loneliness, and questions about life purpose and self-love. Sessions are offered in English and are tailored to each person's needs.

How these approaches work in online therapy

Marjorie uses client-centered therapy to focus sessions on what matters most to the person. That approach emphasizes listening, reflecting, and shaping the plan around each individual's goals and values. It helps people feel heard and keeps work relevant to day-to-day concerns.

She also draws on mindfulness therapy to teach simple practices for noticing thoughts and emotions without getting swept up by them. These tools can reduce reactivity and make stress and anxiety easier to manage. Narrative therapy is used to look at personal stories and identify strengths, which can shift how someone sees a difficult situation.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped before. Together they will try methods that fit the person's needs and adjust as progress is made.

Check which session options are offered before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten commute time, and allow for brief check-ins when needed. The goal is to make therapy practical and workable alongside everyday responsibilities.
