About Marcia
Marcia Schick is a Florida licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 46 years of practice. She offers long-term clinical experience helping people with common and complex concerns. Her work reflects a focus on depression, anxiety, stress, addiction, and anger among other issues.
She supports people who identify as LGBT and attends to relationship concerns and intimacy-related issues. She also helps with grief, trauma and abuse, eating concerns, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and life changes. Her practice draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques rather than a single method.
Sessions are described as collaborative and straightforward. She helps clients notice patterns that keep problems going and then practices different ways of responding. Practical coping strategies and skills are emphasized alongside longer-term emotional work.
Marcia stresses respect for each person's identity and life story. She works with people on addiction recovery and on reducing stress that shows up at work or at home. Her approach includes coaching elements when goals are practical and skill-based.
Clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire to begin. Therapy operates through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and fees vary with location. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking so they know what formats are offered.
How sessions work
Evidence-based techniques and online sessions
Marcia works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach she uses is skills training, which teaches specific behaviors and coping tools to manage strong feelings such as anger or anxiety. Skills practice helps people respond differently in tense moments and reduce repeated reactions.She also employs cognitive-style work that looks at thoughts and beliefs that fuel stress and mood problems. This approach helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with clearer, more useful ways of understanding situations. Both methods suit problems like stress, relationship conflict, addiction recovery, and mood variation.
Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the work. The therapist will review symptoms, goals, and personal preferences and then suggest approaches to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know which online formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a weekday break, reduce travel time, and allow quick check-ins when needed. Ask about specific session lengths and whether shorter or focused coaching-style meetings are possible to match everyday schedules.
