I am only a few months in... But already its the most positive experience I have ever had with therapy. Marcia calls me out, in a supportive and helpful way. Allowing me to reflect and examine myself in a way that allows me to move forward through previously held beliefs that I have never truly reflected on before. I look forward to my sessions with her.

I've been seeing Marcia for a few months now and she has really been incredible. She's able to read between the lines of the things I say and help me to identify the crux of issues I deal with. Marcia is helping me discover how to become a stronger individual and how to show myself grace for being human. She's the type of therapist who you can be truly yourself with and I have found myself able to truly open up to her about things I have struggled with for years. I'm still navigating my healing process, but I'm grateful to have Marcia to walk me through it. She's an honest and kind therapist, and she listens thoughtfully to everything I say. I can't recommend her enough.

Marcia is extremely experienced and it shows in how she engages. She never rushes me and pays a lot of attention to the things I say picking up on words and nuances. She is happy to spend as long as it takes to address an issue but always with empathy.

Marcia has challenged me to face things I've previously tried to overcome, in a different way. She's got incredible intuition and experience, and she's got a way of explaining things that actually makes sense.
