About Marlon
Marlon Buckley is a licensed clinical social worker who uses practical, person-focused methods to help people manage anger and other struggles. He combines straightforward talk with goal-oriented tools to help clients make small, steady changes. Marlon is based in Kentucky and brings eight years of practice to his work as an LCSW.
He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them.
Background and approach
He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. Client-Centered Therapy shapes his style too, so sessions aim to feel respectful and nonjudgmental. Marlon often supports people coping with addictions, low self-esteem, depression, sleeping problems, and relationship challenges.
He also works with those who have experienced trauma or abuse, and with people facing intimacy-related issues. He can address concerns linked to prejudice or multicultural stress. He has additional experience with first responder issues and veteran and armed forces concerns, which informs how he listens and plans changes.
In session he asks about daily routines and specific moments when anger or cravings arise, then practices alternative responses together. Expect clear talk, short skills practice, and step-by-step planning. Marlon encourages small experiments between sessions so progress can be noticed in everyday life.
The goal is to build workable habits that fit each person’s schedule and values.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting those experiences control their behavior. It focuses on clarifying what matters to someone and taking small, meaningful steps toward those values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and tests new ways of responding to reduce symptoms like anger or low mood. Client-Centered Therapy shapes the tone of sessions so people feel heard and respected while they try new skills.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together over time.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or a check-in is needed on a break. Live chat and messaging make it easier to send short updates, practice skills between meetings, or fit support into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, family, or other commitments.
