About Marcie
Marcie Koenig is a Licensed Certified Social Worker-Clinical (LCSW-C) in Maryland with ten years of clinical experience. She sees people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship strain, self-esteem concerns, and the weight of guilt and shame. She also offers support around aging and geriatric issues, chronic illness and pain, end-of-life concerns, and workplace or life-stage transitions.
She works in straightforward, conversational sessions. Conversations focus on what feels most urgent, and on practical steps a person can try between meetings. Sessions are meant for people who need relief from persistent worry, stuck grief, difficult life changes, or ongoing feelings of shame or regret.
Marcie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients name their feelings and learn ways to respond differently to them. She encourages clear communication and small experiments that test how new behaviors feel in daily life. The work often includes looking at how habits of thought keep someone stuck and finding alternatives that fit real routines.
Her background includes focused work with older adults and their families, and clinical experience around hospice and end-of-life counseling. That experience informs how she talks about loss, caregiving strain, and the decisions people face as they age.

How evidence-based methods are used in online sessions
Marcie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques aimed at clear problem-solving and behavior change. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test them by trying different actions in daily life; this is useful for anxiety, low mood, and persistent guilt. Another approach focuses on grief and end-of-life concerns by helping people make meaning of losses and practice small, manageable ways to remember and adjust.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That process can include trying a technique for a few sessions and then adjusting based on what helps most.
Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy schedule, shorten check-ins during a workday, or reduce travel time for caregivers and people with mobility limits. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework for use between sessions so the work fits into everyday life.
