About Merrie Bartlett

Merrie Bartlett, LCSW (licensed clinical social worker), welcomes people into a virtual office where many arrive with different problems but a common wish - to find more peace. She defines peace as a reduction in stress and anxiety and the ability to feel at home in one’s own body and spirit, a calm that can be present even amid life’s storms. In therapy she helps clients identify the obstacles that keep them from that calm and works collaboratively to develop practical ways to overcome those barriers.

Her approach is eclectic and tailored to each person’s needs, drawing on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address issues such as stress, anxiety, family and parenting concerns, depression, and coping with life changes. She also gives attention to caregiver stress, communication challenges, divorce and separation, midlife transitions, workplace issues, and questions of self-love and life purpose. Merrie invites prospective clients to define clear goals for therapy and partners with them to create a plan aimed at increasing moments of peace and improving daily functioning.

She offers services through remote formats and looks forward to getting to know each person and supporting them in the process of change.
