About Mallerie

Mallerie Berwick is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 14 years of practice. She draws on experience from schools, substance use treatment settings, and private practice to support people facing anxiety, obsessive thinking, and life transitions. Her style is warm and interactive, and she emphasizes building a trusting relationship in the room.

She uses mindfulness-based practices to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting swept up in them. She also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients clarify their values and take small, meaningful steps toward them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used when people need concrete skills to manage anxiety, panic, or obsessive-compulsive patterns.

Mallerie brings experience with substance use challenges, attention-deficit/hyperactivity concerns, and issues around self-esteem and body image. She also works with people facing relationship and communication struggles, codependency, and caregiving or compassion fatigue. Her background includes work with adolescents and young adults, which informs her approach with clients across the lifespan.

Sessions tend to be collaborative and paced to the person's needs. She combines talk-based work with practical exercises, worksheets, and mindfulness practice you can use between sessions. The goal is to help people build sustainable coping habits rather than quick fixes.

To begin, she asks people to share their goals so sessions can be tailored. She supports steady progress through clear steps and check-ins, helping people move toward clearer priorities and more manageable day-to-day coping.

How her approaches translate to online work

Mindfulness Therapy helps people notice bodily sensations and thoughts without reacting to them; it can reduce rumination and make daily stress feel less overwhelming. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small, values-driven steps even when feelings are hard. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in relationships and helps people change how they connect and communicate with others.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. She will work together with each person to match techniques to their goals, preferences, and current difficulties. That means discussing what's most helpful - more skills practice, values work, or relationship-focused exploration - and adjusting as progress is made.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and let people work on mindfulness or exposure exercises from familiar routines. Licensed professionals can adapt mindfulness, ACT exercises, and cognitive-behavioral tools effectively in remote sessions when those formats are offered.

These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing mindfulness as an approach does not mean a therapist holds a formal mindfulness training or certificate.
