About Mardi

Mardi Mitchell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 25 years of experience helping people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or burned out. She supports adults who are coping with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, addiction, caregiving strain, relationship and family concerns, and life transitions. Her manner is warm and accepting rather than confrontational.

Mardi uses a collaborative style. She listens to what matters to each person and builds a plan together.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer ways of thinking so daily life becomes easier to manage. She draws on Narrative Therapy to understand the stories people tell about themselves and their problems. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) are used to loosen unhelpful thoughts and to guide small behavior changes.

Client-Centered methods shape how she interacts in the room, keeping the work paced by the client's needs. Mardi has worked across many settings in Florida over a long career and brings experience with complex, overlapping issues such as chronic illness, caregiver stress, and trauma. That background helps when problems feel layered or connected.

In early sessions she focuses on what the client wants to change and builds clear, achievable goals. Later sessions track progress and adjust strategies when needed. The aim is steady, manageable improvement rather than sudden fixes.

Online session options

How Narrative, ACT, and CBT Shape Online Work

Narrative Therapy helps by looking at the stories people tell about their lives and problems, then finding new ways to tell those stories so they feel less stuck. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches skills for noticing difficult thoughts and emotions while acting on what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing small behavior changes to see what helps in daily life.

Finding the right blend of methods is part of the work. Mardi approaches this collaboratively, listening to each person's goals and trying different strategies together. She checks in often and adjusts techniques to fit the client's needs and preferences.

Online formats add practical flexibility. Video calls let the conversation feel close to an in-person session. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day and to share quick reflections between sessions. These options help people access consistent support while coordinating with work, caregiving, or health needs.
