Marci is a true life saver! I wish I had the words to describe how much she's helped me. She's a great listener and asks the most insightful questions. She's created such a safe space that it feels like I've known her forever -and I know I can talk to her about anything without judgement. Marci is genuinely kind and perfectly professional. I can't recommend her enough!

More about Marci

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • LICSW, LCSW

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Alabama. I have 6+ years of experience providing mental and behavioral health counseling to adolescents, adults and seniors. I work with a variety of issues including: anxiety, stress management, mental illness, substance use, compassion fatigue, depression, relationships, health and wellness, and trauma.

I value the holistic wellness approach. I believe “well” is connected to the whole person. Mind, Body, and Spirit. I work to meet you where you are and explore your goals you would like to achieve.

It takes courage to start a therapeutic journey, I am glad you’re here! I will be here to empower you along the way.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
