About Marco
Marco Nozicka is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with forty years of clinical experience. He helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship trouble, grief, self-esteem struggles, parenting concerns, and career transitions. He uses practical tools to help clients move forward and meet everyday challenges.
Marco keeps sessions straightforward and goal-focused. He blends talk therapy with coaching techniques to clarify values and set concrete steps. His style centers on listening closely, building on strengths, and finding small changes that add up over time.
Background and approach
Marco draws on a mix of approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral methods, client-centered work, and hypnotherapy when appropriate. He also uses elements of the Gottman Method to address communication and relationship patterns. That combination supports both short-term problem solving and longer-term personal growth.
He practiced across diverse communities, including the Caribbean region and multiple areas of the United States, and graduated from the Jane Addams School of Social Work at the University of Illinois Chicago. Marco has a background as a professional coach and international executive, so career coaching and workplace concerns are a familiar focus.
Outside of clinical work he is an avid cyclist, musician, and long-time meditation practitioner. He often combines mind-body ideas with therapy to support habit change, stress reduction, and more balanced daily routines. Marco aims to help each person identify realistic goals and practical steps toward a fuller life.

Online support
Online approaches that fit real-life schedules
Marco uses the Gottman Method ideas to work on communication and routines that affect relationships, focusing on small behavioral changes and clearer conversations that ease conflict and increase connection. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people name what matters most, accept difficult feelings, and take committed action toward chosen values rather than getting stuck in worry or avoidance. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, listening stance where the therapist follows the client's lead and helps them find their own solutions.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has worked or not worked in the past, then suggest techniques to try. Clients and therapist can adjust the mix of methods over time to find what best supports progress.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is useful for deeper conversations and exercises that benefit from seeing one another. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a short break. Live chat or text messaging works well for quick check-ins, homework exchange, or ongoing coaching-style support between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, family, and travel obligations.
