LMFT, 20 years of experience
I have over twenty years of experience helping individuals, couples and families overcome difficult issues like addiction, trauma and betrayal. I am a traumatologist whose specialty is treating PTSD and the full spectrum of dissociative disorders. I earned my doctoral degree in marriage and family therapy, a systemic approach to mental health. I have a post graduate certificate in family systems healthcare, and am certified in hypnotherapy, incorporation therapy and neuropsychotherapy.
The first session will be dedicated to getting to know one another and completing a historical assessment so together, we can develop a plan to get you where you desire to be.
Experience, expansive knowledge and I'm not afraid of a tough case.
I love working with individuals who have failed at therapy before, who really want to address the underlying issues and change their lives.
As a seasoned traumatologist, I view many issues such as addiction through a lens of trauma. All behavior makes sense, we just have to find the context.

Dr. Gina is an intelligent, warm, kind, caring, and understanding therapist. She’s a great listener and provides excellent feedback. I like communicating with her and brainstorming ways to cope with my situation. I always feel better sorting things out with her and most of all i feel understood.

This is my first time and Dr. Marchando has made my experience excellent. I feel so much better after every session.

She listens and allows me to get it all out, while also giving me different information that I can apply to avoid certain moments.
