Marc Rosenbaum, Registered Clinical Social Worker Intern

As a Sarasota therapist, I work with men navigating relationship stress and the pressure of holding it all together, women managing anxiety and the weight of caretaking roles, couples working to rebuild honest communication, and individuals and couples of all orientations and gender identities figuring out what it means to live authentically. I also work with older adults facing the emotional side of aging and early cognitive changes, and with caregivers who are stretched thin trying to hold up someone else's life along with their own. A few things people often want to know before reaching out: I don't accept insurance, but I maintain a limited number of reduced rate spots based on need and individual situation, along with special rates for veterans, first responders, teachers, and their families. Sessions are available both in person at my Sarasota office and via secure telehealth video anywhere in Florida. I offer a free 15-minute consultation for anyone deciding whether we're a good fit before committing to ongoing sessions. My educational background includes a BA from Georgetown University and an MSW from Florida State University. I draw on strength-based, trauma-informed, and collaborative approaches, adapting my style to each person rather than applying one method across the board. My work with couples is informed by the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy. Beyond individual and couples sessions, I facilitate community support groups in the Sarasota area, including "Aging Rebels" in partnership with Senior Friendship Centers and "Unstuck" for adults in their 20s and 30s, and I'm involved with a Sarasota EAP supporting workplace mental health.
