About Marcie

Marcie Stover Jividen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Pennsylvania with 23 years of professional experience. She works with people who bring stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, parenting concerns, anger, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and LGBT-related issues. Sessions are offered in English and she has experience with both children, youth and adults according to her background.

She uses a mix of conversational and skills-based work. That can mean talking through upsetting events, practicing breathing and grounding skills, or looking at how thoughts and actions link together. Marcie also reports experience with interactive and expressive therapy approaches that involve more activity than just talking.

The approaches she lists include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). Those methods are used to address symptoms like panic, intrusive memories, mood shifts, and strong emotional reactions.

Her practice notes work with issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care concerns, attachment issues, domestic violence, postpartum depression, personality and mood disorders, obsessions and compulsions, and panic disorder. She also notes experience assisting people navigating gender dysphoria and hearing impairment related concerns.

Marcie describes adapting conversations and plans to the needs of each person. To begin, prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and then schedule a first session through the site’s matching and scheduling tools.

BHow sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking practical steps toward them while learning to notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and uses brief exercises to change unhelpful patterns. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used to reduce the intensity of distress tied to past events through a structured set of processing steps.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then try methods that fit the client’s needs. That collaborative process helps adjust techniques if something isn’t working.

Confirm the specific session formats and technical details before booking since the biography does not list formats explicitly. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, shorten travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when a full session isn’t needed. They also let people use quieter surroundings, reduce the need for camera use, or schedule sessions during a work break. Ask about session length and format when you complete the matching questionnaire so scheduling fits everyday life.
