About Marcia
Marcia Bryant-Cornelison is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 11 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on common concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, ADHD, anger, self-esteem, relationship strain, parenting questions, LGBT issues, and young adult challenges.
She uses practical, evidence-informed strategies in sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one of her main approaches and she pairs it with Solution-Focused work and skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Conversations focus on concrete steps, coping skills, and small experiments to try between meetings.
In a session she talks through the specific problems you bring and helps set short-term goals. That can mean breaking a worry into manageable parts, creating new routines, or practicing emotion regulation techniques. She also uses coaching-style guidance when clients want direct feedback and planning support.
Marcia aims to help clients who feel stuck after school, at work, or in relationships. Young adult issues are named among her focus areas, so she often supports people navigating early-adulthood pressures like career choices, money stress, and shifting friendships.
She practices in Georgia and offers services in English. The emphasis is on clear steps you can use right away and checking progress as you go.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing more useful ways of thinking. In practice that means breaking problems into steps, tracking thoughts and behaviors, and trying specific new actions to see what changes. DBT provides skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness; sessions can include practicing breathing, distress tolerance, and communication techniques. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on clear, short-term goals and what you want to be different soon; it is useful when you want direct, goal-oriented work.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will review your needs, goals, and preferences and suggest options. Together you can try methods and adjust them based on what is helpful and practical.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let therapy focus on practical tasks you can do between meetings, such as behavioral experiments, skill practice, and goal tracking with follow-up in the next session.
