Marlo Lewis is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with eight years of practice in California. She helps people handle stress, anxiety, relationship strain, self esteem concerns, grief, and career questions. Her style is warm and practical, aimed at small changes that add up over time.
She focuses on uncovering what underlies negative feelings and behavior. Sessions explore how past patterns affect current choices, and work toward new ways of thinking and acting. Marlo emphasizes setting clear, doable personal goals and adjusting plans as life changes.
Clients can expect a supportive, collaborative approach. Conversations balance emotional processing with steps to manage daily challenges. She often uses questions and reflections to help people notice what matters most to them.
Marlo trained in social work and earned a Master of Social Work from California State University, East Bay in 2008. Before that she completed a Bachelor of Science in Industrial Psychology at California State University, Hayward in 2002. Her clinical work draws on those foundations while staying focused on present concerns.
She offers phone sessions only at this time. If someone is unsure where to begin, Marlo guides the first steps toward clearer priorities, healthier habits, and stronger self-regard.
How Marlo's Approaches Translate to Online Sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and meeting you where you are. The therapist follows your lead, reflects what she hears, and helps you notice your strengths and values. This is useful for building self esteem, handling grief, and addressing relationship concerns.
Solution-Focused Therapy is action oriented and brief. It zeroes in on small, concrete steps that move you toward a preferred outcome. This approach suits people who want clear goals for career decisions, coping with life changes, or managing stress.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with you about your goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. Together you can adjust the plan as you learn what helps most.
Marlo currently offers phone sessions only, so check the session options before booking if you need a different format. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow a quieter check-in during a lunch break, or make follow-up conversations simpler without travel. Therapists often blend reflective listening with concrete homework and quick goal reviews to keep progress moving between appointments.
She works with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, trauma and abuse, parenting strains, career questions, and self esteem struggles.
