Marc began practicing psychotherapy from a foundation of Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), which remains central to his practice because it is a proven method for treating various conditions. He also incorporates a more integrative approach, Interpersonal Neurobiology (IPNB). 

IPNB considers the biology of the brain, neuroscience, and other ideas, like systems, attachment, and psychoanalysis. This "biopsychosocial" approach helps counselors and therapists understand a person's entire well-being.  

Shawn is trained in multiple treatment modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), and trauma approaches (PE), like the Connect Attachment Program, the Attachment Regulation Competency (ARC) framework, and the Collaborative Problem Solving model. He is also trained to provide readiness hormone and surgical assessments through for World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH).
