About Marc

Marc Rott is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 26 years of experience. He offers a warm, collaborative approach that helps people untangle the patterns behind anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship problems. His manner is straightforward and respectful, aimed at helping people feel heard and understood.

Marc focuses on what sits beneath symptoms. He pays attention to the beliefs, habits, and life events that keep problems repeating. Sessions are paced to match each person's comfort level and goals, whether the issue is low self-esteem, feeling stuck, or coping with life changes.

He brings experience from hospital settings, private practice, and higher education, where he taught for more than 25 years. That background informs practical ways to handle everyday challenges while also addressing deeper causes. He draws from a range of approaches and tailors the work to each person’s needs.

Marc also lists interests in supporting people dealing with ADHD, autism and Asperger syndrome, intimacy and kink-related topics, blended family concerns, caregiving stress, first responder issues, and other relationship and identity matters. He takes a nonjudgmental stance and aims to help people find clearer ways to relate to themselves and others.

Sessions are conducted in English and Marc accepts international clients. If you want a grounded, thoughtful therapist who focuses on real-life change as well as coping, his style may be a good fit.

Step 3

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening carefully and following the client's lead to build trust and clarity. It helps people who need a steady, respectful space to sort through feelings and decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and managing stress through concrete exercises and homework.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Because the biography does not list session formats, confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a work break, or offering an option when someone prefers not to use video. Licensed professionals can also use written tools and exercises between sessions to reinforce what was discussed during meetings.
