About Marjorie

Dr. Marjorie Woodruff helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, grief, and depression. She is a New Jersey psychologist with 30 years of professional experience and a long history of supporting caregivers. Her work often focuses on the practical problems that come with aging, caregiving, and life transitions.

She spends time listening closely to what matters most to each person. Sessions tend to focus on clear, doable steps and on changing unhelpful thought patterns. She describes her strengths as empathy, careful listening, and pragmatic problem solving.

For the last 15 years Dr. Woodruff has concentrated on older adults and people who care for them. That work includes helping with hospice and end-of-life concerns, loneliness, communication problems, and the stress of caregiving. She also supports people dealing with abandonment, guilt, shame, and midlife shifts in purpose.

Her method draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which means identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and trying alternatives that work better. She has long-term relationships with some clients and aims for steady, realistic progress rather than quick fixes.

Dr. Woodruff accepts clients from New Jersey and also sees international clients. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and scheduling follows the usual matching and booking process on the site.

How CBT and online sessions can support everyday caregiving challenges

Dr. Woodruff uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice and change thoughts and behaviors that keep stress and low mood going. CBT focuses on practical tools - for example, testing worried thoughts, building small daily routines, and trying new ways of coping with panic or anxiety.

The right approach is usually found together. She will talk with each person about goals, daily life, and what feels most useful, then adapt suggestions so they fit the situation. That collaborative process helps make sure steps are realistic for caregivers and for people facing aging transitions.

The platform supports working remotely, but please confirm the exact session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time around caregiving duties. Many people find remote sessions help them keep momentum between appointments while still focusing on real-life problems and clear behavioral steps.
