Background and approach

Marcy aims to create a therapeutic relationship grounded in mutual respect, honesty, and trust so clients can engage fully in the work of therapy. Her background includes roles in community mental health, school settings, and independent practice, which inform a flexible, strengths-based style.

Marcy adapts her methods to suit each person, drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Attachment-Based techniques, and client-centered principles. She emphasizes helping clients connect with their feelings, communicate more effectively, and apply practical skills to address the issues they bring to session.

Across individual, couple, and family work she prioritizes a comfortable, collaborative relationship to support meaningful change. Her approach balances evidence-informed strategies with attention to personal values and goals, aiming to equip clients with tools they can use beyond the therapy hour.

Evidence-Informed Approaches Delivered Online

Marcy uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based techniques to guide online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, panic, and obsessive thinking. Attachment-Based methods explore relationship patterns and emotional bonds to help clients improve closeness, communication, and stability in their relationships.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and life context to determine which combination of strategies feels most useful, and will adjust plans as progress is made so the work fits each person’s needs.

Online therapy is offered through a mix of video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility for busy lives and varied comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain regular sessions, practice skills between appointments, and access care from home or another convenient location while working with a licensed professional.
