About Marilyn
LMHC Marilyn Mejia is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York with eight years of clinical experience. She offers therapy in English and Spanish and focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, and coping with life changes.
Mejia uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address attachment issues, communication problems, impulsivity, post-traumatic stress, and women's issues. Sessions are collaborative and practical. She helps people build coping skills and improve how they relate to others.
Her approach blends cognitive work and person-centered listening with mindfulness and trauma-informed ideas. That mix is used to help people manage symptoms, reduce overwhelm, and work through difficult experiences. Sessions involve exploring patterns, practicing new skills, and setting small, achievable goals.
Mejia has worked with adults facing professional burnout and caregivers experiencing stress. She also supports people navigating grief and life transitions. Her bilingual offering allows Spanish speakers to access therapy in their preferred language.
If someone is considering starting, she asks clients to identify concrete goals and to try focused exercises between sessions. The emphasis is on straightforward strategies that can be used outside the therapy hour to ease daily stress and improve relationships.

Approaches used in remote sessions and what they do
Mejia uses cognitive-based work to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking. This approach helps reduce anxious or depressive thinking and gives concrete skills to try between sessions.She also draws on person-centered techniques that focus on listening and reflecting what a person says. That method helps clarify feelings and priorities so clients can make decisions that fit their lives.
Mindfulness practices are used to increase present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity. These exercises are brief and can be practiced in daily routines to lower stress and improve emotional regulation.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals, needs, and preferences. Together they adjust methods over time based on what helps most.
The biography does not list specific remote session formats. Confirm current session options before booking to learn whether sessions are offered by video or phone. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Licensed professionals can also use remote sessions to continue consistent work during life transitions.
