About Marcie Scranton
I specialize in addressing major life upheavals, issues that arise during recovery, and the effects of depression, anxiety, grief, and trauma.  In an atmosphere of warmth and compassion, I provide goal-oriented counseling.

I also believe a major purpose of therapy is to help clients connect their past events to present emotions.  With new coping skills and greater self-understanding, you can expect to achieve improved relationships, personal satisfaction, and a higher level of self-esteem.
