Background and approach
Sessions are focused on clear goals and real-world steps that fit a client’s day-to-day life. Marc pays attention to patterns that affect relationships and personal wellbeing, and helps people learn new ways to respond to those patterns.

He also uses client-centered and cognitive behavioral strategies to break unhelpful thinking and build new habits. People come to him for a range of concerns, including depression, coping with transitions, communication problems, infidelity, and feelings of isolation. He helps clients untangle family of origin issues, work through commitment or control worries, and find clearer direction during midlife shifts.

Online support
Working with relationship and attachment approaches online
Marc commonly uses the Gottman Method to look at how everyday interactions shape relationship patterns and to teach specific skills for better communication and conflict navigation. He also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early bonds influence current reactions and emotional needs, helping clients understand why they feel and act the way they do.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marc treats therapy as a collaborative process and will help clients choose methods that match their goals, personality, and the problems they want to change. He checks in as the work progresses and adjusts the focus if something isn’t helping.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video is useful for deeper conversational work and exercises that need visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits a break at work. Live chat and text messaging are practical for quick reflections, daily check-ins, or between-session support. These options help clients fit therapy into busy lives while keeping the therapeutic goals front and center.
