About Marjorie
Healing begins with feeling truly heard.
I believe that every person carries within them the capacity for growth, resilience, and change. My role is not to fix you — it's to walk alongside you as you find your own way forward.
Background & Training
Education & Credentials
Marjorie Stallard holds a Master of Arts in Clinical Counseling and is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia. With four years of clinical experience, she has supported adults through trauma recovery, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and the complex challenges unique to women's mental health. She draws from EMDR, CBT, DBT, and IFS — evidence-based approaches with strong research support for lasting change.
Therapeutic Approach
How we work together.
Therapy with Marjorie is collaborative, warm, and deeply individualized. There is no one-size-fits-all path to healing. She draws from EMDR, CBT, DBT, and IFS — tailoring each session to what you need most in that moment. Sessions are a space free from judgment, where honesty is welcomed and your pace is always respected.
Trauma-Informed
Every aspect of the therapeutic relationship is shaped by an understanding of how trauma lives in the body and mind.
Collaborative
You are the expert on your own life. Marjorie's role is to offer tools, perspective, and a steady presence.
Evidence-Based
Drawing from EMDR, CBT, DBT, and IFS — approaches with strong research support for trauma, mood, and lasting change.
Whole-Person
Healing isn't just cognitive. Marjorie attends to the emotional, relational, and physical dimensions of your wellbeing.
Philosophy
What I believe about healing.
I believe that the therapeutic relationship itself is one of the most powerful agents of change. When you feel genuinely safe and seen, something shifts. You begin to trust your own instincts again. You start to recognize your strength. My deepest hope for every client is not just symptom relief — it's a life that feels authentically yours.
“You are not broken. You are a person who has been through hard things — and you are still here.”
