About

With a deep understanding of the challenges faced by young adults navigating life's transitions, Marjorie de Veer, LICSW, brings a wealth of international experience to her therapy practice. Specializing in anxiety, depression, adult ADHD, trauma, and grief, Ms. de Veer offers a unique perspective shaped by her decade-long work with American expatriates in Vietnam and Colombia.

Ms. de Veer primarily utilizes cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a heavily researched and effective approach that links thoughts to feelings and behaviors. This framework is particularly beneficial for clients struggling with anxiety and depression, as it helps them challenge distorted thinking patterns and replace them with more rational ones. However, her toolkit extends beyond CBT, incorporating complementary modalities such as mindfulness, exposure therapy, creative arts, and stress management techniques. This integrative approach allows her to tailor treatment to each client's unique needs and preferences.

While Ms. de Veer works with clients of all ages, her practice focuses mainly on young adults in their 20s and 30s. Her extensive experience living overseas has given her a nuanced understanding of cultural adjustments and the unique stressors faced by those adapting to new environments. This background makes her particularly well-suited to assist clients dealing with major life transitions or grappling with identity issues in an increasingly globalized world.

Committed to ongoing professional development, Ms. de Veer holds a certificate of advanced training in traumatic stress and is in the process of becoming a certified ADHD professional. These specialized credentials complement her master's degree in clinical social work from Columbia University and her bachelor's degree from DePaul University in Chicago.

With a career in psychotherapy spanning since 2006, Ms. de Veer brings a wealth of experience to her practice. Her time spent working with expatriates has honed her ability to help clients navigate complex emotional landscapes, whether they're dealing with the aftermath of trauma, managing the symptoms of ADHD, or working through the stages of grief. Clients can expect a collaborative approach that builds upon their existing strengths, empowering them to make meaningful changes in their lives.
