About Marcia

Marcia Klucznik is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan who supports people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, parenting pressures, and other life changes. She offers steady, practical guidance for those coping with relationship and family concerns, addictions, sleep or eating struggles, and the emotional effects of trauma and illness. Her approach is warm and straightforward.

Sessions focus on clear goals and small steps that fit daily life. She listens first, then helps clients try tools that address thinking patterns, coping habits, and self-care routines.

Background and approach

Marcia draws on nearly a decade of work as a counselor. She uses methods such as client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques. These are mixed to match each person's situation and strengths.

Clients can expect a collaborative tone in sessions. She emphasizes building resilience, improving communication, and finding practical ways to manage stress and emotions. Progress often comes from testing a new coping skill and reflecting on what works.

Marcia also brings attention to concerns that overlap with health and aging, caregiver stress, chronic pain or illness, and end-of-life matters. She helps people navigate complex situations where emotional and practical needs meet, aiming to restore balance and clearer next steps.

How Marcia’s Approaches Work Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding the client’s perspective and building trust so people can set their own goals and move at their own pace; it helps when someone needs a nonjudgmental place to talk through difficult feelings. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful habits.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to each person’s situation, goals, and preferences, then suggest methods to try. Together they decide what feels most useful and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions make these methods easier to access from home. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work for brief check-ins, and live chat or text-based messaging can support on-the-go check-ins or skill practice. This flexibility helps people fit therapy into busy schedules and keep momentum between meetings.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
