Marci Zago , LMHC, LPC

Marci Zago is a licensed mental health counselor who brings 14 years of clinical experience to her work with adults. She practices in Indiana and focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and depression. Marci aims to help people who feel burned out, anxious, or disconnected from what matters to them.

Many who seek her help are managing on the outside but feel exhausted or uncertain inside. Marci offers a calm, nonjudgmental space to talk through those feelings. She helps clients identify what they want and build practical skills to cope with daily pressures.

Her work is collaborative and tailored to each person's goals. Sessions emphasize simple, actionable tools that can be used between meetings. Over time clients learn strategies to reduce overwhelm and build confidence in stressful moments.

Marci also supports people working through life transitions such as divorce, midlife shifts, or career changes. She addresses relationship and communication problems, family of origin concerns, and issues tied to adoption and foster care. First responder stress, caregiver strain, workplace struggles, and post-traumatic stress are additional areas she addresses.

People looking for help with women's issues, eating and food-related concerns, or a renewed sense of life purpose may find her approach relevant. Marci conducts sessions using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different routines.

She holds credentials as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, and a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, and works in English only. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire.

Evidence-based approaches in online care

Marci uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional regulation. One common approach helps people learn skills to manage anxiety and stress through step-by-step coping strategies and breathing or grounding practices. This kind of work is useful for daily overwhelm, burnout, and panic symptoms.

Another approach focuses on processing trauma and abuse by helping clients make sense of difficult experiences and reduce their emotional hold. This work can help with post-traumatic stress, intrusive memories, and the ongoing effects of past harm.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Marci works together with each person to figure out which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when more connection is helpful. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to get brief support or follow-up between sessions. These options help fit therapy into work, caregiving, or unpredictable schedules.
