About Marcus

Marcus Clark is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW, CSW) based in Georgia who brings seven years of practice to supporting adults and adolescents facing a wide range of mental health and addiction concerns, including ADHD.

Background and approach

He frames his work around strengths and practical change, helping people manage stress, anxiety, mood disorders, substance-related issues, relationship challenges, trauma, grief, and other life transitions.

Marcus trained at Kennesaw State University, earning a Master of Social Work in 2015, and has worked across outpatient mental health and addiction settings, community mental health centers, community and home-based programs, and correctional facilities for juveniles and adults. That variety informs a pragmatic, experience-based perspective on coping skills and recovery.

His therapeutic stance emphasizes holistic, strengths-based care with concrete tools drawn from cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, motivational interviewing, solution-focused methods, mindfulness, and trauma-focused interventions. He also integrates knowledge of 12-step approaches when relevant.

Marcus aims to collaborate with each person to create a treatment plan grounded in their goals and day-to-day realities.

Online approaches that build skills and resilience

CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, offering concrete tools for anxiety, mood concerns, ADHD-related challenges, and stress management. DBT provides skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be useful for intense emotions, relationship difficulties, and problems with impulsivity.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to tailor or combine these methods based on their goals, symptoms, and day-to-day realities, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds so the plan fits the person's needs and preferences.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to receive consistent support around work, school, or caregiving schedules and allow skills-based work and coaching to continue between sessions. Licensed professionals can guide clients through exercises, track progress, and adapt tools in ways that fit an individual's routine and access needs.
