About Marc

Marc Wilner is an LCPC (Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor) practicing in Maryland with three years of experience. He works with people experiencing stress, anxiety, addictions, family difficulties, low self-esteem, and coping with life changes. He also supports concerns such as abandonment, aging and geriatric issues, attachment questions, autism and Asperger syndrome, caregiver stress, codependency, commitment concerns, communication problems, control issues, dependent personality patterns, disruptive mood dysregulation disorder, drug and alcohol addiction, first responder issues, and forgiveness.

He meets clients who have tried to handle problems alone and keep running into the same patterns. Sessions are conversational and collaborative. Marc focuses on identifying what keeps someone stuck and on practical steps that can be used between meetings.

Marc uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to the situation at hand. He pays attention to strengths and to real-life tools that make daily routines easier. He works with teens and adults facing transitions, grief, trauma, burnout, and relationship strain.

In sessions he balances listening with concrete goal-setting. Conversations move from understanding patterns to trying small, doable changes. He aims to help people feel more confident about decisions and clearer about next steps, including matters of life purpose when that is a concern.

People who choose him often want clear tools and steady conversation rather than abstract theory. To begin, prospective clients follow the site process to match and schedule a first appointment.

How evidence-based methods translate to online work

Marc describes his approach as evidence-based techniques applied in a conversational, collaborative way. Cognitive-behavioral approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing small behavior changes. These methods help with anxiety, stress, and everyday patterns that keep someone feeling stuck. Motivational and practical strategies aim to increase commitment to change by breaking goals into manageable steps. That approach supports people dealing with addiction, procrastination, or repeated relationship patterns. In sessions the therapist will help set short-term goals and track progress in ways that fit your life. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marc will discuss different techniques and work with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. This is a collaborative process where adjustments are made over time based on what helps most. Because session formats are not specified in the biography, confirm available online options before booking. Online appointments can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also accommodate quieter surroundings or lower bandwidth needs depending on the format you select.
