Online support options
Approach-Based Online Therapy that Fits Your Life
Marc often combines Client-Centered and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to support people online. Client-Centered work means sessions follow the person's priorities and pace, with the therapist listening and reflecting to help clarify goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns that keep problems going and practicing new ways of thinking and acting to reduce symptoms.He also integrates Emotionally-Focused ideas when relationship or attachment concerns are central, helping people notice and change how they respond to strong emotions. Choosing the right approach is collaborative - the therapist will discuss options, try methods, and adjust based on what the client needs and prefers. This helps people find a working style that feels useful and realistic.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is helpful for in-depth conversations and visual cues. Phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for ongoing support, brief coaching, or when messaging fits a busy schedule. These options increase flexibility and make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work and family life.
