Marjorie Fagan

Marjorie Fagan is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 14 years of experience. She greets people warmly and aims to make beginning therapy feel manageable. She helps with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, low self-esteem, and major life changes. She also supports people facing addiction, career strain, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, relationship and family concerns, and bipolar mood issues.

Marjorie invites clients to talk through whatever feels overwhelming right now. She does not present herself as a fixer but offers practical suggestions and collaborative steps. Sessions emphasize learning tools you can use between meetings. Mindfulness-based practices are part of how she helps people notice patterns and reduce reactivity.

Her approach blends several methods to fit each person’s needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Psychodynamic ideas help uncover long-standing patterns that affect current choices. Solution-Focused Therapy supports short-term goal setting and small, achievable changes.

Marjorie’s work draws on many settings she has practiced in across Southern California. She brings 14 years of clinical experience to each client and aims to create a respectful, collaborative space. Clients should expect straightforward conversation, practical strategies, and an emphasis on building skills that last.

Sessions are conducted in English and follow the subscription model described on the site. Prospective clients are encouraged to review format options before booking and to choose what best fits their schedule and needs.

How Marjorie Uses Mindfulness and Practical Therapies Online

Marjorie integrates Mindfulness Therapy to help people notice their thinking and bodily reactions. Mindfulness practices tend to reduce reactivity and make it easier to choose new responses when stress or strong emotions arise. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to change how problems feel and function in daily life.

Finding the right approach is usually a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to clarify goals and try methods that match their needs and preferences. That might mean mixing mindfulness exercises with CBT techniques and brief solution-focused steps to make forward progress.

Please confirm the specific online session options before booking, since format details are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Some people find phone or video meetings help them practice skills between sessions and apply changes in real contexts. Licensed professionals tailor the rhythm and tools of online work so it fits the client’s life and goals.
