Therapeutic approaches and online options
Marc uses the Gottman Method to look at everyday relationship patterns and communication habits, helping people identify small changes that improve connection and reduce repeated arguments. Attachment-Based Therapy helps clients understand how early bonds shape current feelings and closeness, which is useful for addressing abandonment, trust, and commitment concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marc collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring. He adapts sessions over time so techniques fit day-to-day life and evolving needs.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for deeper conversational work and nonverbal cues, phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited, live chat can suit quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep continuity when life changes.
