He has provided group and individual counseling in varied settings.

How Marc’s Approaches Translate to Online Care
Marc uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people change unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and building a collaborative relationship so clients feel heard and guided in setting goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on spotting thought patterns, testing them, and practicing practical skills that reduce symptoms like anxiety or anger.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Marc discusses goals and preferences with each person and adjusts techniques as needed. He works together with clients to pick strategies that fit their situation and pace, rather than imposing a single method.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skills practice and deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text sessions work well for brief updates, tracking progress, or working through short exercises between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and stay consistent with their goals.
