Marcell Gary , LPC

Marcell Gary is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Louisiana who brings a thoughtful, strengths-based approach to supporting people through mood, relationship, and life transitions. She holds an LPC credential, which indicates formal training and state licensure to provide professional counseling services. With eight years of clinical experience, Marcell has worked across inpatient and outpatient settings and with individuals, couples, families, and groups to address concerns such as depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, stress, and self-esteem.

Her practice focuses on a broad range of issues including relationship and family problems, grief, intimacy-related concerns, anger, career challenges, coping with life changes, and postpartum depression. Marcell draws from evidence-informed methods including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered techniques, mindfulness approaches, and motivational interviewing to tailor care to each person’s needs. She also offers support for specific areas like communication and commitment issues, infertility-related stress, guilt and shame, impulsivity, and finding life purpose.

Marcell works in English and is not currently accepting new clients or international clients. She emphasizes collaborative goal setting and practical skills so people can make meaningful changes and move toward the values that matter most to them.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Support

Marcell uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify their values and take committed action toward a meaningful life, even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. ACT is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions because it emphasizes living in line with personal values rather than getting stuck in avoidance.

She also incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors through practical skills and structured exercises. CBT is often effective for panic, depression, and stress-related concerns and gives concrete tools for day-to-day coping.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Marcell works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and circumstances, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds. Therapists and licensed professionals often blend strategies to meet individual needs.

Online therapy with Marcell is available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules and accessibility for those who prefer remote care. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to practice skills in the contexts where challenges actually occur.
