About Marc
Marc Rott is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Oregon with 26 years of experience. He works with people dealing with anxiety, stress, depression, relationship and parenting concerns, and self-esteem or confidence problems. Marc also supports those facing life transitions, feeling stuck, or coping with ADHD and a wide range of intimacy- and identity-related topics.
He draws on several practical approaches to understand how patterns and beliefs shape feelings and behavior. In sessions he looks beyond symptoms to the experiences that keep them going. That can mean talking through habits, testing new ways of responding, and noticing how the body holds tension.
Marc’s background includes hospital-based work, private practice, and more than 25 years teaching in higher education. That mix of clinical and teaching experience influences how he explains ideas and practices in simple, step-by-step ways. He aims to move at a pace that feels manageable for each person.
In the room he blends Client-Centered methods with cognitive and emotion-focused tools. He also uses mindfulness and somatic techniques to help people reconnect with their reactions and make changes that stick. These tools are used to address problems such as communication breakdowns, anger, intimacy issues, and family stress.
People choosing to work with him can expect collaborative sessions that focus on identifying underlying patterns, trying small experiments between meetings, and building practical skills for daily life. He accepts clients from outside the U.S., and sessions are conducted in English.
How his approaches translate to online work
Marc uses Client-Centered Therapy to focus on the person's experience and what matters most to them. That means the therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead while offering reflections and practical suggestions. This approach helps with relationship concerns, self-esteem, and feeling heard.He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. CBT provides clear exercises and small experiments to try between sessions, which can reduce anxiety and improve coping. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) shows how feelings shape interaction patterns and helps people shift those patterns to improve connection and reduce conflict.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Marc treats this as a collaborative process - he and the client decide together which ideas to try based on the client's goals and preferences. That shared decision-making helps keep sessions practical and focused.
