  • Client-centered work
  • CBT and DBT tools
  • Mindfulness and somatic

About Marci

Marci Holloway is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Texas with 28 years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, and anger. Marci also helps with mood problems and a range of life transitions.

Her work focuses on straightforward conversation and practical skills. She uses a mix of approaches including client-centered work, cognitive behavioral methods, mindfulness, DBT strategies, and somatic techniques. Those tools are used to address things like intense feelings, mood swings, and recurring patterns that affect daily life.

Sessions are framed around clear goals and steps people can try between meetings. Marci prefers to shape discussions and plans around each person’s situation. That can mean skill-building for managing strong emotions, practicing different ways of responding in relationships, or grounding techniques for stress and trauma symptoms.

She is clear about limits on certain professional letters and court-related work. Marci does not provide disability or leave recommendations, employer or court letters, or court advocacy and testimony. This boundary is part of how she organizes clinical practice.

People considering work on anger will find a practitioner who blends talk, thought-focused tools, and body-centered strategies. The emphasis is on practical steps to reduce heated reactions and manage ongoing frustration. To begin, prospective clients follow the service’s matching process and schedule a first session.

How Marci uses therapy approaches online

Client-centered therapy focuses on open, respectful conversation and on helping people identify their own goals. It is useful when someone needs a steady professional who listens and responds to what matters most to them.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors, which can reduce repeated angry responses and worry.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, offers concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. Those skills can help with mood swings, intense anger, and relationship strain.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with clients to choose which methods to try based on their goals, comfort, and what proves helpful in early sessions. That process is flexible and revisited as needs change.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings around work or family commitments, shorten check-ins when time is limited, and allow people to continue care without travel. Licensed professionals use these formats to keep therapy practical and consistent with day-to-day life.
