About
Marilyn Babcock, LCSW, is a licensed clinician based in New York with 27 years of professional practice. She works with people managing stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem concerns, coping with life changes, coaching needs, and compassion fatigue. Additional areas of focus include aging and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, codependency, communication problems, hospice and end-of-life counseling, life purpose, midlife transition, seasonal affective disorder, and women's issues.
Her clinical orientation draws on Jungian therapy, mindfulness therapy, and psychodynamic approaches. She frames therapy as a collaborative exploration that uses direct conversation, probing questions, and structured home assignments. Recommended activities may include reading, reflection, mindfulness practices, and journaling to support ongoing awareness and coping.
Marilyn asks that people seeking support be willing to engage actively in the process. With many years as a therapist and mindfulness educator, she focuses on helping others revitalize self-care, clarify boundaries, and deepen self-awareness while navigating transitions and loss.
Online and Remote Therapy
Marilyn provides remote sessions using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. In that format she maintains a collaborative stance, inviting active participation, reflective tasks, and follow-up practices between sessions. Home assignments such as reading, journaling, and mindfulness exercises are part of the remote workflow for those who prefer structured, practice-oriented work.
Jungian therapy in her practice emphasizes exploration of personal symbols, patterns, and meaning to illuminate inner dynamics. Psychodynamic work attends to how past relationships and habitual emotional responses shape present reactions. Mindfulness therapy offers methods to increase present-moment awareness and to notice thoughts and emotions without immediate reactivity. These approaches are described and applied in accessible, practical ways so people can choose what fits their needs.
The online format supports ongoing coaching and therapeutic inquiry for those willing to engage with reflective exercises and guided practices. Available communication options include video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging.What is Marilyn Babcock's clinical experience?
