Hi there, I'm Marc J.!

Support is offered to clients as they build steadiness, self‑understanding, and sustainable comfort. The approach is collaborative, culturally grounded, and centered on helping people navigate stress, identity, and life transitions. (Active or former military personnel are not accepted due to a conflict of interest.)

My focus

Focus is placed on supporting clients moving through grief, bereavement, and the many forms of loss that shape our lives. Whether the loss involves a person, a relationship, a job, or a transition, clients are guided in exploring their experiences, goals, and evolving sense of self.

My approach

Mindfulness and cognitive‑behavioral techniques are integrated with an awareness of cultural context. Clients are supported in exploring how their thoughts and behaviors shape their experiences, within a safe and supportive space for growth and self‑understanding.
