Marcia Thompson

I am a clinical social worker licensed in North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia and California. I have 37 years of mental health experience working with adults and children. I have worked with clients with a wide range of mental health issues including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. I believe in working from a holistic/ empowering approach, tending to the mind, body and spirit of the individual and family. The strategies, and skills that I use most in my work are from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy and integrative medicine for mental health. I also use other methods to fit the needs and of the individual/ family. I honor and attend to social and cultural issues such as discrimination, racial and gender bias and multi-generational post traumatic stress. I am passionate about assisting others to achieve more peace and fulfillment in their lives. I look forward to meeting you!
