About Marcie
Marcie Stover Jividen is a licensed clinical social worker in Pennsylvania with 23 years of experience. She works with people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anger, anxiety, trauma, or depression. Her style is warm and respectful, and she aims to create a steady, supportive space for each person who reaches out.
Marcie uses practical techniques to help people manage strong emotions and improve daily functioning. She blends talk therapy with interactive and expressive methods to help clients process difficult memories and reduce reactivity.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on clear goals and skills you can try between meetings. With a focus on trauma, mood concerns, and parenting-related strain, Marcie draws on approaches such as eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, cognitive behavioral therapy, and client-centered work.
She tailors the conversation and the plan to the situation, paying attention to what helps each person feel safer and more able to cope. Clients can expect straightforward language, step-by-step skill building, and moments to reflect on patterns that cause pain. Marcie encourages practical changes and small experiments that build confidence outside of sessions.
She also supports people dealing with identity-related stress, ADHD-related impulsivity, and complex mood issues. Her practice offers several ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Sessions are scheduled through an online matching process and follow a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Online approaches that help with strong emotions
Marcie often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking and change behaviors that keep distress going. CBT is practical and focuses on skills you can use between sessions to reduce anxiety, manage anger, or lift mood.She also draws on acceptance and commitment therapy, which helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that match their values. This approach can be useful for long-term patterns like avoidance or low motivation.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Marcie collaborates with each person to try methods that fit their goals, preferences, and the kinds of problems they bring. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets you have a fuller conversation and practice skills together, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can be useful for brief check-ins or ongoing support between meetings. These options help people fit sessions around work, caregiving, or school commitments while keeping therapy consistent and focused.
