About Marjorie
She has spent the last 15 years concentrating on older adults and the people who support them. That experience means she can talk through practical changes in daily life, offer ways to handle caregiver stress, and support coping with loss and life transitions. Sessions are grounded in clear problem solving and everyday language.
Dr. Woodruff emphasizes listening and empathy in sessions. She helps people notice and change thinking patterns that cause extra worry or sadness. Her approach is collaborative and calm, aimed at steady, manageable progress rather than quick fixes.
People who stay with her tend to do so over many years. That continuity can be useful for navigating recurring worries or long-term caregiving roles. She brings patience and practical strategies to each meeting.
Her base is New Jersey and she practices in English. She also works with international clients. To start, readers should use the site's Start Therapy button and fill out the matching questionnaire to schedule a time.
