About Marco
Marco Macaluso is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado with eight years of clinical experience. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and the emotional fallout of trauma or major life changes. Marco aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable and supported.
He creates a calm space where people can say what they’re feeling without judgment. Conversations are straightforward and grounded. Sessions focus on practical ways to cope, reduce distress, and regain some control over daily life.
Background and approach
Marco has worked with a wide range of concerns, including depression, grief, sleep problems, and issues around intimacy and relationships. He also supports people facing caregiving strain, compassion fatigue, and work-related stress for first responders. His approach is problem-focused and adaptable to what each person needs.
People who come to him for anger-related concerns will find strategies to notice triggers, manage intense feelings, and rebuild calm routines. He also helps with obsessive thoughts and mood disorders by breaking problems into small, manageable steps. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes.
Sessions are offered in English and conducted online through video, phone, chat, or messaging. Marco works with clients to set clear goals and practical next steps. He encourages honest conversation about what is and isn’t working so adjustments can be made together.

Approaches that guide online care
Marco uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One approach emphasizes teaching coping skills to manage intense emotions and reduce angry reactions; this includes learning to notice triggers and practicing new responses. Another approach breaks larger problems into small, manageable steps to address symptoms of depression, obsessive thoughts, or mood fluctuations through repeated, everyday actions.Finding the right approach is a team effort. Marco works collaboratively to match techniques to a person’s goals, needs, and comfort level. He checks in regularly and adjusts plans based on what is helpful, so therapy stays focused and relevant to real life.
Online sessions are available by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and deeper work, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and messaging suit brief check-ins, ongoing coaching, or times when writing out thoughts feels clearer. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between sessions.
