Marcia Klucznik, LPC

Marcia Klucznik is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and major life changes. She works with clients facing caregiver strain, chronic illness, and the emotional fallout of relationship shifts. Her approach is practical and compassionate, aimed at everyday coping rather than quick fixes.

She uses clear, collaborative conversations to help people sort through their thoughts and daily habits. Sessions focus on building self-compassion, improving communication, and finding small changes that make life easier. She often blends client-centered listening with tools from cognitive behavioral and mindfulness approaches.

Marcia has nine years of experience working with adults who face issues like trauma, addiction, sleep and eating concerns, and feelings of isolation. She also supports people dealing with aging, cancer, hospice and end-of-life stress, and other complex medical or caregiving challenges. Her background includes nursing experience that informs how she addresses health-related concerns.

In therapy she emphasizes practical problem solving and motivation to change. Clients are invited to set clear, manageable goals and try small experiments between sessions. Conversations focus on what is happening in day-to-day life and on building routines that support mental health.

Marcia aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can regain a sense of control. She guides clients toward better coping habits and clearer thinking so they can handle stressors with more confidence. The work is paced to each person’s needs and life demands.

How therapy approaches shape online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to the person in front of the therapist. It helps people feel heard, name what matters, and decide on goals that fit their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and habits affect feelings and behavior. It provides simple methods to test unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes that can reduce anxiety or lift mood.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals, try methods that match what you need, and adjust over time. Clients often try a mix of listening, practical CBT exercises, and mindfulness practices to see what helps most in daily life.

Please confirm the current online session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online appointments can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time, or schedule brief check-ins during a break. Different formats may suit different needs - for example, shorter audio check-ins can work when bandwidth is limited, while video sessions can help with learning skills and practicing communication. Licensed professionals can help you decide which option will best support your goals.
