How Marcus applies therapy approaches online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's concerns and priorities. The therapist follows the person’s lead, reflects what they say, and supports them in making choices about goals and next steps. This approach helps with decisions, relationship questions, and clarifying values.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. It involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new responses through short exercises. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress and provides practical skills for daily life.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills. It is useful when strong emotions or conflict make everyday functioning hard. DBT techniques can be practiced between sessions and reviewed together.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. Plans can be adjusted over time as progress and challenges become clearer.

The original biography does not list specific session formats. Before booking, confirm which formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten commute time, and allow for brief check-ins when needed. They also let clients practice skills in the settings where problems actually occur, and permit flexible scheduling around work or caregiving commitments.
