I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families. I am licensed in Oregon and have worked across a variety of settings, including hospital-based care, private practice, and higher education, where I taught for over 25 years.
I work with clients experiencing concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, relationship difficulties, confidence and self-esteem issues, life transitions, and feeling stuck or overwhelmed. I have found that while symptoms are important to address, lasting change often comes from understanding the root causes behind them — the underlying patterns, beliefs, and experiences that continue to shape how we think, feel, and relate.
My therapy style is warm, supportive, and collaborative. I strive to create a non-judgmental space where clients feel respected, understood, and safe to explore what is really going on beneath the surface. I draw from evidence-based approaches and tailor our work to meet your unique needs and goals, moving at a pace that feels right for you.
Seeking support takes courage, especially when life feels heavy or uncertain. If you are looking for a thoughtful, grounded approach that focuses not only on coping but on meaningful, lasting change, I would be honored to support you in this process.
I look forward to working with you.

Marc Rott was a godsend for me. My family has always been close and loving, but issues recently had grown some thorny disagreements, and it began to look like it was even going to be worse. Marc was patient, and even more important, was impatiently firm with me. He helped me take a long look at what my part of the family problems were, and what I might do to help it. He was a very, very big help, and I will/would reach out to him again if needed. No hesitation!

I came to Marc tense and overwhelmed to the point I could barely move my neck. I never felt judged. He helped me realize that what I felt were big issues were small fixable obsticales with out making me feel dismissed. Marc helped me make very small daily changes in my routine that made a world of difference in a short amount of time.
Written on Jan 14, 2023 after therapy with Marc for 2 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, family conflicts, and grief
I've had very few sessions with him so far. I have already seen that he's patient and very understanding. I never feel judged, he never makes assumptions and i always feel understood. He allows time for momentary silence so you have a chance to reply on a delay, which really helps for people who don't always have their reply ready right away. In my experience this is a rare and needed skill.
