About Marc

My name is Marc Roman. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT #97320) in California with twenty years of clinical experience; nine years licensed. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including but not limited to anxiety, depression, communication issues, mood disorders, grief and loss, life transitions and family/relationship issues. I graduated from the California Institute of Integral Studies in with an MFT degree and have worked in a variety of clinical settings including locked inpatient units and outpatient community based mental health facilities as well as residential treatments homes. I am a solution-focused therapist with a person-centered approach. I strongly believe in the resiliency of human beings and know that you already have the answers deep inside of you. My task as your therapist is to bring out these answers in order to help you live the life you want and deserve.  

(left) Tremendous credit for ‘My Talking Cure’ is provided here to Anna O (a pseudonym for Bertha Pappenheim,) patient of physician Josef Breuer, colleague and friend of Sigmund Freud. Between 1880 and 1882 Anna O coined the term ‘talking cure’  to refer to her own verbal therapy that helped relieve her symptoms by allowing her to recall and express painful memories.
