Marilyn DeLuera, LCSW

Marilyn DeLuera is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida with 14 years of professional experience. She approaches therapy as a process of discovery - helping people identify possibilities, reclaim strengths, and reframe how they see themselves. Her work is rooted in a client-centered orientation that places the person at the center of the therapeutic process while also recognizing how inherited traits and life environments shape behavior and relationships.

Marilyn often supports people coping with trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, self-esteem concerns, depression, stress, anxiety, relationship and family issues, anger, bipolar disorder, and life transitions. She also addresses related areas such as abandonment, attachment and communication difficulties, caregiver stress, codependency, isolation and loneliness, guilt and shame, and mood-related concerns. Her practice includes attention to both immediate coping needs and longer-term meaning work, such as exploring life purpose and personal values.

She draws on a range of clinical approaches to tailor care to each person, including Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. Marilyn brings both professional training and decades of lived experience in family and community roles - daughter, wife, mother, grandmother, friend, and colleague - to her therapeutic work, offering a compassionate and grounded presence to those she supports.
