Hello! I am an experienced, licensed psychologist who has helped many individuals, couples, and families to navigate various life transitions. I enjoy serving clients who are willing to assess their value systems to determine if their values are still consistent with who they want to be. To some extent, our personal styles are genetically determined. However, I also believe we base our values on early learning, whether that education was positive or not.
In your first session, we will get to know each other. Together, we will begin to discover how you arrived at your crossroads, as well as start the plan for your future destination.
As a provider, my greatest strength is my intuition. However, I learned a long time ago that my intuition is only as accurate as my knowledge and experience. Consequently, I have worked, and continue to work, to add to my knowledge and experience.
I have tremendous respect for individuals who are open to addressing their difficult experiences. To do so, requires courage, and I will partner with you on this journey. Painful life experiences leave an unfinished learning, and the purpose of therapy is to complete this learning. In individual therapy, I help client’s to say, “No,” without feeling guilty, and to move away from repetitive overthinking. We will address your “inner critic” to help you to be present in relating to others. Individual therapy can address your motivation and vitality, helping you to manage stress, rather than stress managing you. With couples and family therapy, I help couples stop having the same argument over and over. After infidelity, couples may find the path back to “us.” Partners with parenting differences can learn to collaborate for their kids. Since chronic illness can negatively impact a couple, therapy may help you both to stop asking “Why is this happening to me?” and begin asking, “How can we get through this together?” Family therapy can help blended families learn to unify, and help parents build a bridge to children.

Marilyn is very warm and kind, and also was a great listener and allowed me to be open about everything. She is caring and took the time to evaluate and ask questions about all of the things i brought up in our session. I really look forward to our talks.

Marilyn truly understands how to find the source and meets you where you are mentally building from there. Definitely does not come in like a wrecking ball. She is the real deal.

Marilyn was very helpful in our first visit. My wife admired her skill in reading the situation and identifying her emotional and mental state. I appreciate Marilyn’s skill with edifying my wife’s emotions. That will help me be able to practice that skill so I can relate to my wife and we can connect better as a couple. Looking forward to our second visit.
