Mardi Mitchell, LCSW

Mardi Mitchell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 25 years of practice. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and major life transitions. Mardi focuses on practical support for everyday problems like sleep, eating, parenting strain, and caregiver stress.

She uses a client-centered style that starts with listening. Mardi creates an accepting, nonjudgmental space so clients can talk about what matters most. Together they set clear goals and build steps to address the issues that feel overwhelming.

Mardi draws on several approaches to tailor care. She may use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to examine unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to clarify values and action, or mindfulness exercises to reduce reactivity. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills and motivational interviewing techniques can also appear when they fit the situation.

Over her career she has worked with concerns such as abandonment, codependency, chronic illness and pain, substance issues, and challenges at the end of life. Aging and geriatric issues and hospice or end-of-life counseling are listed among her focus areas and inform how she supports people and caregivers facing those stages of life.

Mardi practices in Florida and conducts sessions in English. She asks clients to pick the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to availability. Fees vary by location and use a cancelable subscription model.

Approaches that translate to online care

Mardi commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values, which can be helpful for grief, caregiving stress, and life changes. CBT looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns, often useful for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating issues.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to prioritize the person’s own goals and perspective. That approach centers listening, empathy, and collaborating on a treatment plan so the client and therapist decide together what techniques to use. Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process and will be adjusted based on each person’s needs, goals, and preferences.

The therapist's original profile does not list specific online session formats. Please confirm the available session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT, ACT, and client-centered techniques to remote work so progress and practical skill practice continue between meetings.
