About Marcia

Marcia Winter is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with three years of professional experience. She practices in Florida and often sees people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, family and intimacy-related concerns, grief, and trauma. Marcia also works with issues related to addiction, career stress, and LGBT-related concerns.

She began her career in the child dependency field and has experience supporting parents and adults connected to adoption and foster care. More recently she works as an emergency room social worker in a hospital setting. In that role she commonly provides brief interventions for people after a traumatic event or a sudden life change.

Marcia uses a straightforward, nonjudgmental approach in sessions. She practices client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening and responding to what each person brings. She also uses mindfulness techniques to help people notice and manage strong emotions and solution-focused work to identify small, practical steps toward immediate goals.

Her background includes helping people with caregiver stress, attachment and commitment issues, codependency, infidelity, and problems that come with aging or hospice and end-of-life concerns. She has seen people coping with domestic violence, substance use problems, hoarding, and the effects of divorce and separation.

Sessions emphasize clear goals and practical strategies. Marcia has said she would like to build longer-term therapeutic relationships to support people toward their goals. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.

How sessions work

How Marcia’s approaches fit into online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what each person brings. It helps when someone needs a place to sort feelings and make decisions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to lower reactivity and calm anxiety. It can be useful for stress, grief, and trauma-related symptoms. Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, practical steps that move someone toward a specific goal. It is often used when people want immediate, concrete change.

Finding the right approach is part of starting work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and needs and then recommend which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made as sessions progress.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions fit into busy family lives because they remove travel time and can be scheduled around work or caregiving. Others prefer a shorter check-in when time is limited, or a longer session when tackling complex issues. Speak with the therapist about scheduling and what will best fit everyday routines.
