About Marc

Marc Rott is a licensed clinical social worker who centers his practice on client-centered care and practical tools. He brings 26 years of experience to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. His manner is warm and collaborative, focused on helping people feel heard and understood.

He often helps clients identify the patterns and beliefs that keep problems repeating. That means talking through how past experiences shape current feelings and behavior.

Background and approach

Sessions mix listening with strategies to change unhelpful habits and improve communication. Marc uses a few different approaches depending on the person's needs. He draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to shift thinking that fuels anxiety or low mood.

He uses emotion-focused work when relationships and intimacy are at the core of the issue. Mindfulness and somatic practices also appear in his work to help people notice sensations and calm the body. These tools can be useful for managing anger, stress, and strong emotions in the moment.

He has worked in hospitals, independent practice, and higher education, including many years teaching. That mix informs a practical, down-to-earth style that aims for steady progress rather than quick fixes. Marc supports adults dealing with life transitions, parenting and blended family concerns, ADHD, and a broad range of intimacy and identity issues.

Sessions are available in English and can be arranged from Oregon. Marc accepts international clients and offers several online formats to fit different schedules and needs.

Online support

How therapeutic approaches work online

Marc uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify and change the thoughts and behaviors that feed anxiety and depression. CBT involves setting clear goals, practicing new skills between sessions, and tracking progress over time.

He also draws on emotion-focused therapy for relationship and intimacy concerns. EFT helps people name and express core emotions, repair interaction patterns, and build stronger emotional bonds with others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marc will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide whether to focus on thinking patterns, emotional experience, body-based techniques, or a mix of methods.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction for skill practice and deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for ongoing coaching, brief check-ins, and day-to-day skill reinforcement.

These options make therapy more flexible for people juggling work, parenting, or travel. The range of formats helps tailor the work so it fits into real life while focusing on steady, meaningful change.
