Mark Silla , LPCC

Mark Silla is an eclectic, client-focused counselor who places each person’s needs at the center of therapy. He views the individual before any diagnosis and supports a process of self-discovery to identify the deeper sources of presenting problems. Drawing on a range of techniques, he helps clients examine and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors so they can move toward meaningful life goals.

With an emphasis on collaboration, Mark adapts his approach to fit diverse clients, communities, and concerns rather than applying a one-size-fits-all method. He combines practical strategies with a respectful exploration of identity and experience to create a therapeutic path that aligns with each client’s values and strengths. Mark holds the credential LPCC, which stands for Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, and brings his experience to bear while keeping the client’s perspective foremost in the work.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Mark Silla uses client-centered therapy to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the client’s perspective guides the work. This approach emphasizes listening, empathy, and collaboration to help people explore their identity, values, and goals.

He also incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT - which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is practical and goal-oriented and can be helpful for issues like anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy - DBT - is another key method he uses, offering skills in emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT can be especially useful for intense emotions, relationship difficulties, and patterns of impulsive behavior.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Mark works collaboratively with each client to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences.

Online therapy with Mark is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexible options to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access consistent care from licensed professionals while balancing other life responsibilities.
