About Marc
Marc Galati is a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 14 years of professional experience. He works with young adults on stress, anxiety, relationship problems, family conflict, self-esteem concerns, and depression. Marc also addresses issues such as attachment, codependency, communication breakdowns, and feelings of isolation.
He uses straightforward conversation to identify what feels stuck and what matters most to the client. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking rather than jargon. Marc adapts his approach to each person's situation and goals while keeping sessions focused and goal-oriented.
His background includes long-term work with people navigating family of origin problems, infidelity, guilt and shame, and seasonal mood shifts like SAD. He has experience supporting men facing role and identity pressures and works with clients who are hearing impaired.
Marc frames problems in everyday terms and looks for small, sustainable changes clients can try between sessions. He supports people sorting out life purpose, motivation, and relationship patterns that repeat. Conversations aim to improve communication and reduce the day-to-day stress that interferes with study, work, or social life.
Marc offers a practical, steady approach rooted in evidence-based therapeutic techniques. He will help clarify priorities, set achievable goals, and track progress in ways that fit a young adult schedule. The initial step is a brief assessment to map concerns and plan next steps.
How evidence-based approaches are used in online sessions
Marc draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood and relationship difficulties. One common approach focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that keep anxiety and low mood going, then testing small changes to see what helps. This method helps with depression, anxiety, and motivation problems.Another approach looks at relationship patterns and attachment - how early connections influence current trust and communication. Work here centers on clearer communication, repairing ruptures, and changing repeated interaction cycles that contribute to loneliness or conflict.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. He frames therapy as a collaborative process where the client’s goals and preferences guide which techniques are tried. Together they review what’s working and adjust plans as needed.
