Marie Wagner

Hi, I'm Marie Wagner, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida (LCSW) and Massachusetts (LICSW) specializing in trauma, PTSD, anxiety, grief, and depression. I provide virtual therapy to adolescents and adults who may be navigating the effects of painful life experiences, childhood wounds, abuse, grief and loss, difficult relationships, cultural or family pressures, and major life transitions.

Born in Haiti, I have a deep connection to Haitian, Haitian-American, immigrant, and culturally diverse communities. I understand that culture, family, identity, faith, and life experiences can shape both how we carry pain and how we heal. I provide therapy in English and Haitian Creole and strive to create a space where clients do not have to leave important parts of themselves outside the therapy room.

My approach is trauma-informed, culturally responsive, collaborative, and strengths-based. I believe effective therapy should be individualized rather than forcing every client into the same method.

Depending on your needs, I draw from approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Narrative Therapy, mindfulness-based strategies, grounding, psychoeducation, and strengths-based interventions.

Together, we work to understand what is beneath the symptoms, recognize patterns that may no longer serve you, strengthen coping skills and boundaries, and build practical tools for moving forward. For clients who want faith to be part of therapy, I also welcome the thoughtful integration of Christian faith and spirituality while respecting each person's beliefs and preferences.

You can expect warmth, honesty, compassion, and collaboration. Our first sessions will focus on understanding what brought you to therapy, what you have experienced, how it is affecting your life today, and what you want to change.

We will move at a pace that respects your story while developing a treatment plan that reflects your goals. Therapy with me is not simply about learning to cope. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, develop healthier patterns and boundaries, strengthen your sense of safety and resilience, and create meaningful change that continues beyond the therapy room.
