Marlee Nirenstein, MSW, LICSW

Life can feel overwhelming when you’ve been carrying too much for too long. Whether you’re navigating a difficult transition, exploring your identity, managing anxiety or depression, struggling with addictive behaviors, healing from trauma, or working through relationship challenges, therapy can help you reconnect with your strengths and values and help you move towards meaningful change.

With more than 25 years of experience as a clinical social worker in school and outpatient mental health settings, I offer a compassionate, collaborative, and trauma-informed space grounded in authenticity, curiosity, and empathy. Together, we’ll explore patterns that may be keeping you stuck and build a life that feels more aligned, fulfilling, and authentic.

I enjoy working with adolescents and adults from diverse backgrounds, including BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and neurodivergent individuals, as well as those exploring whether they may be neurodivergent. I also support clients in healing their relationships with food and their bodies through Health at Every Size® (HAES®) and Intuitive Eating principles.

My hope is that therapy becomes a place where you feel seen and supported, find your voice, interrupt patterns that no longer serve you, and move beyond symptom reduction to a life where you feel more connected to your values, purpose and most authentic self.
