About DeMarquane
DeMarquane Thomas is a licensed clinical social worker who uses a client-centered approach to support people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and life transitions. She emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental space where people can name feelings and take steps toward change. DeMarquane holds an LCSW and practices in Louisiana.
She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thought patterns and try new behaviors that feel more useful. Mindfulness techniques are used to bring attention to the present moment and reduce reactivity.
How DeMarquane works
Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or unsure about change. DeMarquane has six years of professional experience in social work. That background includes work with people coping with addiction, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, and compassion fatigue.
She also supports those dealing with parenting concerns, career stress, ADHD, and mood challenges such as bipolar and postpartum depression. Her practice attends to practical life problems as well, like money and financial stress, communication problems, commitment issues, and aging and geriatric concerns. She also addresses experiences related to prejudice and discrimination, isolation and loneliness, and forgiveness work.
Sessions focus on clear goals, small steps, and tools people can use between meetings. She works collaboratively to choose strategies that fit each person’s goals and daily life. The approach is straightforward and action-oriented while remaining empathetic and respectful.

Online support options
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters most to the person. In online sessions this means the therapist creates space for you to tell your story and choose the goals to work on. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches simple exercises to test new ways of thinking and behaving; it can help with anxiety, depression, and stress by giving concrete homework and short exercises to try between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide whether CBT, mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, or solution-focused methods fit their goals and preferences. That choice can shift over time as progress is made or needs change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for longer, conversational sessions and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or when someone prefers written communication. These options make it easier to fit sessions into work, caregiving, or other daily commitments.
