About Marci

Marci Grayson is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and life transitions. She welcomes straightforward conversations and aims to make the first steps feel less overwhelming. Her approach is practical and respectful, with a focus on building confidence and motivation over time.

She tailors discussions and plans to each person's situation instead of using a one-size-fits-all method. Marci listens for what matters most and works with clients to set clear, realistic goals.

Background and approach

Sessions emphasize skills that can be used between meetings to handle day-to-day challenges. With 15 years of professional experience, she has supported people through coping with change, addiction concerns, trauma and abuse, and relationship struggles. She also addresses issues such as communication problems, control struggles, guilt and shame, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.

Marci brings a steady, compassionate presence to hard conversations. Her work often includes coaching-style guidance when people want practical next steps alongside emotional support. She believes progress is built in small, manageable steps and that clients know a lot about what they need.

Marci aims to help people find clearer priorities and more self-compassion as they move forward. Marci holds an Indiana Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential, IN LMHC 39002434A. She provides services from Indiana and offers sessions in English.

To begin, she asks people to share where they are now and what they hope to change so they can map out a path together.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Marci uses evidence-based techniques that focus on practical skills and clear goals. One common approach helps people learn new coping skills for anxiety and stress, teaching breathing, grounding, and planning steps to handle difficult moments. Another method focuses on building self-esteem and motivation through small action steps and reflecting on strengths to boost confidence and follow-through.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Marci will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences, then try methods that fit. She adjusts the plan as progress is made so the work stays relevant and useful.

Online therapy with Marci is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to allow flexibility. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time, and keep continuity when life gets hectic. The range of formats supports a mix of real-time conversation and shorter check-ins, helping people practice skills and stay connected between longer sessions.
