Marcia Peetz, LPC

Marcia Peetz is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are feeling stuck by stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and grief. Marcia also focuses on concerns such as attachment issues, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and separation related to divorce.

She uses straightforward, evidence-informed methods to help people name the problems that matter most. Sessions often involve learning concrete skills from approaches like cognitive behavioral methods and acceptance strategies. Clients practice new ways of handling strong emotions and taking small steps toward clearer priorities.

Marcia integrates attachment-focused work to look at patterns that show up in relationships. That can mean tracing how early connections affect trust, boundaries, and communication now. She also draws on client-centered techniques to keep sessions grounded in what each person brings to the room.

When trauma or grief are present, the work moves at a pace the client can manage. The focus is on lowering overwhelm and building tolerable ways of processing difficult memories or losses. Practical tools and emotion regulation skills are part of the plan when needed.

Marcia offers a perspective that can include faith when a client requests it, alongside clinical methods. People who come to her often want clear next steps - better communication, reduced anxiety, or a steadier sense of purpose after major life change.
