About Mark
Mark J. Kriezis is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with eight years of experience. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, self-esteem concerns, career questions, and ADHD-related challenges.
He aims to help clients feel steadier and more able to face daily demands. He uses practical steps to calm intense moments and reduce overwhelm. Sessions emphasize clear goals and small, doable changes that fit into busy lives.
Background and approach
He helps people spot behavior patterns, try new responses, and track what works. Mark pays attention to identity, culture, and life stage when planning care. He prefers a respectful, collaborative style and supports people who want straightforward guidance and real-world tools.
The space is meant to help people de-escalate during distress and rebuild confidence over time. His toolkit includes crisis-focused methods, motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral techniques, and behavior modification. These approaches are used to address mood and impulse-related issues, addictive patterns, relationship difficulties, and feelings of isolation or shame.
He works with a broad range of concerns beyond anxiety - including abandonment and attachment issues, blended family and communication problems, substance and process addictions, guilt and forgiveness, life purpose, and men's and veteran-related topics. Sessions are conducted in English and are offered from Massachusetts. Mark structures care to move from immediate stabilization toward long-term, self-directed growth.
He helps people build skills they can use after therapy ends and supports steady progress through realistic steps.
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Mark uses evidence-based techniques that adapt well to remote work. Cognitive behavioral techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors; they are useful for anxiety, mood problems, and impulse control issues. Motivational interviewing helps people clarify goals and strengthen motivation for change through short, focused conversations about values and next steps. Crisis-focused interventions are used to stabilize intense moments and create immediate plans for safety and calm.Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to pick methods that match their goals, comfort level, and daily routine. Plans are adjusted over time based on what is helping and what feels manageable.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow for face-to-face conversations and shared worksheets. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins, skill practice, and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into workdays, care schedules, or travel.
