About Marcie

Marcie Stover Jividen is a licensed clinical social worker in Pennsylvania who supports people coping with stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and related challenges such as ADHD. With 23 years of practice, she brings experience working with children, youth, and adults and adapts her approach to each person's needs.

Background and approach

She uses evidence-based methods including EMDR for processing intense reactions to past events, along with CBT, DBT, ACT, and client-centered techniques to address mood, behavior, and relationship concerns. Her style emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion while tailoring conversations and treatment plans to what each client finds most helpful.

Interactive and expressive methods are also part of her toolkit. Marcie frames therapy as a collaborative process that begins with a courageous first step.

She aims to empower clients as they pursue greater well-being, offering support while helping them develop practical skills and insights to manage symptoms and move toward meaningful change.

Using evidence-based approaches in online care



Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify personal values and take committed action toward them while learning to accept difficult internal experiences. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and mood issues. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) offers a structured way to process distressing memories and intense emotional reactions that can follow trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and the therapist works collaboratively with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Treatment plans are adjusted over time so clients can try techniques and keep what helps most.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone conversations, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access care from Pennsylvania and fit therapy into daily life while still allowing for focused, skill-based work and trauma processing when appropriate.
