You look in the mirror and see the "bad" traits. That you're not thin enough, not righteous enough, not "good" enough. You realize that these traits were projected there by someone else--a partner, or maybe even a parent. You want to recover from perhaps a lifetime of emotional pain and narcissistic abuse but you don't know where to begin...I specialize in treating adult children of narcissists, cult abuse/religious trauma survivors, and those struggling with disordered eating and body image issues. I can support you in developing your inner strengths so that when you look in the mirror it will be your true self staring back at you.

Hi, I’m Marin and I’m so glad you’re here! If you’re experiencing distance or conflict in your relationships or are hoping to build a more compassionate and meaningful relationship with yourself, I’d love to help. I am passionate about helping couples find their way through any hardship in a way that brings them closer along the journey and would love to help you build a foundation of communication and trust that you can build on for years to come.

I’ve wanted to be a therapist since I was a teenager and I still can’t imagine doing anything else. It is such a great privilege to hear your life stories. I think it takes a lot of bravery to walk into my office and share your inner thoughts and feelings with me, especially if you haven’t experienced a lot of empathic listening in your life. As a fellow frequenter of the couch myself, I know how hard it can be! And also, how deeply meaningful. Through my own journey of healing from trauma and witnessing profound transformations in my clients, I bring more than just clinical tools to the therapeutic process.

I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, trauma, and PTSD using a relational lens. If you're looking for an authentic, transparent clinician who utilizes humor and compassion to help clients navigate the complexities of life, we'll likely be a great match.. My therapist vibe is "professional friend" and while we will explore heavy, painful topics, therapy is not going to be a huge bummer the whole time. We will joke, we will riff, we will come up for air. No matter what you're going through, or have faced in the past, I sincerely believe that healing is possible and would be honored to support you on that journey.

Healing happens relationally–within our communities, our families, and within ourselves. Therapy works best if we can build a safe and trusting relationship, so you should know a little bit about who I am! I am a white, queer and trans femme musician turned therapist. I am areligious, but I find many experiences to be deeply spiritual, including cooking, being in community with others, singing together, and walking in nature. Folks who do well with me don't fit the status quo, are navigating transitions, are noticing patterns in their relationships they want to examine and change, and are in search of healing and transformation.

Do you feel overwhelmed with what’s going on the world? In my 25 years as part of the helping profession, I remain committed to helping people overcome obstacles. I work with individuals within the context of their family of origin.

I think of the therapeutic relationship as a workshop where clients can plan, tinker, experiment, test, and refine parts of themselves, their relationships, and their lives with my unwavering support. It's a place and time where we can collaborate on what might need to change, what tools are necessary for the task, and on the ways it might begin to unfold. I create and hold a safe place for clients to ponder, practice, and consider change-- especially when they struggle to maintain that space for themselves. As a trauma informed practitioner, I am able to ground and contain intense affect to help clients feel held.

NOTE: Caseload currently full and not taking new clients at this time. My clients might struggle with depression or anxiety... perhaps struggle with life transitions... or maybe need help in balancing their daily life with the demands that their recovery requires.

I love working with clients who embrace their autonomy in this process and are ready to do the work! I operate under the understanding you already have everything within you that is required for you to thrive. I'm here to help you tap into it :-)
