More about Marc
- 25 years' experience

- LMFT
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California and a Nationally Certified Counselor with an MA in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University and a PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision from the University of the Cumberlands. I have 25 years of clinical experience.
Sometimes we know where we want to go, we just need a road map and a little assistance to get there. My approach to therapy is solution-focused to help you get there. The goal of solution-focused therapy is to help you imagine the future you want to create and then
create a series of realistic steps to help you get there. As the name implies, solution-focused therapy focuses on finding solutions to problems rather than focusing on the problems themselves. While some therapies require clients to think about their past and
how they got where they are, solution-focused therapy stays in the present and future.
Through solution-focused therapy I will help you identify that you already have the skills needed to make changes in your life. I will work collaboratively with you to make reasonable, practical goals to bring these changes about.

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.
