About Marsha
Marsha Rimler is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in New York with 20 years of experience. She helps people who are struggling with relationships, low self‑esteem, depression, and challenges at work or with life changes. Marsha frames clients as the experts in their own stories and builds on existing strengths to move forward.
She offers straightforward, calm support for people facing grief, trauma, anger, or issues around intimacy and parenting.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on clear steps you can try between meetings, practical ways to cope with stress, and ways to rebuild confidence. Marsha pays attention to how past attachments and current patterns shape present problems. The approach is collaborative and centered on the person in front of her.
She listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps identify small changes that make daily life easier. Cognitive tools are used to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors when they get in the way. Marsha also draws on skills from client‑centered and dialectical methods to help with emotion regulation, relationship patterns, and ongoing worries.
These skills can help when feelings become overwhelming or when conflicts keep repeating. She works at a pace set by each person’s needs. People come to Marsha for support with anger, caregiving stress, identity concerns, and mood issues.
Her goal is to help clients build clearer choices and safer routines so they can handle hard moments more effectively.

How therapeutic approaches work in online care
Attachment‑Based Therapy focuses on the ways early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people notice how they relate to others, work through repeated conflicts, and build healthier connection habits. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses exercises and small experiments to shift unhelpful thinking and reduce symptoms like low mood or anxiety.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and which methods feel most useful. Together they will try techniques, review what helps, and adjust the plan over time so it fits the person’s life and needs.
Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text‑based messaging to fit different days and routines. Video lets people work face to face when that is helpful. Phone can be easier when bandwidth is low or when you want a shorter check‑in. Messaging and live chat support ongoing reflection between sessions and can make it easier to keep momentum during busy weeks. These options increase flexibility and make it simpler to keep therapy consistent alongside work and caregiving.
