About Marilyn

LISW in Ohio with 12 years of clinical experience, Marilyn Turneur focuses on addictions, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, trauma, and parenting concerns. She works with people who are managing stress, grief, ADHD, anger, career shifts, intimacy challenges, and compassion fatigue. Marilyn uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral and mindfulness-informed approaches.

Marilyn keeps sessions straightforward and practical. She listens for patterns that maintain problems and helps people try small, testable changes. She uses motivational interviewing to clarify what matters to each person and DBT skills when emotions feel overwhelming.

Sessions commonly involve goal setting, skill practice, and reviewing what did or did not work between meetings. People can expect concrete tools for managing anxiety, cravings, anger, and relationship conflict. Mindfulness practices are used to build attention and reduce reactivity.

Her work emphasizes collaboration. Marilyn and the client identify steps that fit the client’s life and values. She balances short-term coping strategies with attention to longer-term changes in behavior and thinking.

Marilyn’s background includes a Licensed Independent Social Worker credential, which she uses in community and clinical settings across Ohio. She draws on 12 years of experience to offer pragmatic support rather than highly technical jargon. Her practice is delivered in English and she is not taking international clients.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches are used in virtual care

Marilyn commonly uses client-centered therapy to follow a person’s priorities. This approach involves open listening and reflecting so sessions stay focused on what the person wants to change. It helps with areas like self-esteem, relationship concerns, and deciding next steps.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, and addictive urges. Dialectical behavior therapy provides concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness when feelings are intense.

Finding the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. Marilyn will work with the client to choose approaches that match the client’s goals, needs, and daily life. She checks progress and adjusts strategies as needed rather than sticking to a single method.

Confirm the session formats offered before booking because formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, shorten check-ins when time is limited, and allow for skills practice between meetings. These practical benefits can help people maintain consistency while they try new coping strategies.
