About Marjorie
Dr. Marjorie Woodruff is a New Jersey psychologist with 30 years of professional experience. She works most often with stress and anxiety, and also helps people coping with grief and depression. She has a long track record supporting caregiving challenges and issues that come with aging.
Woodruff has spent the past 15 years focusing on older adults and the people who care for them. She talks with clients about practical changes and about how thinking patterns keep problems going. Sessions often include talking through immediate worries and learning ways to respond differently to recurring thoughts.
Her style centers on listening closely, helping people reframe thoughts that aren’t working, and using problem solving to make daily life more manageable. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thoughts and behaviors that feed anxiety or low mood.
People who stay with her long term often return when new challenges arise. She works with common situations like caregiving strain, isolation, panic attacks, and the questions that come up around end-of-life care and hospice. Discussions about forgiveness, guilt and shame are part of the work when those issues matter to the client.
Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online therapy options button.
How Dr. Woodruff’s CBT work translates to online sessions
Dr. Woodruff uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify thoughts that worsen anxiety or low mood and to practice different responses. CBT involves setting clear goals, testing unhelpful beliefs, and trying small behavioral experiments to see what changes. This approach is often used for stress, panic symptoms, depression, and persistent worry.She combines listening and problem solving with CBT techniques to focus on what is happening now and what can be changed. Figuring out which tools fit a person’s situation is a collaborative process. The therapist and client discuss goals, try methods, and adjust the approach based on what works for the client’s needs and preferences.
