meet marina

Hi! I'm Marina, a Registered Psychotherapist and I chose this career because I understand firsthand the profound impact therapy can have on one's life. I am passionate about supporting individuals and couples on their journey towards positive transformations and emotional well-being.

My approach to therapy is rooted in empathy, authenticity, and a deep respect for each individual's unique journey. Whether you're facing challenges such as trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, anger management, or struggling with issues related to self-esteem, boundaries, and rebuilding trust. I'm here to provide you with a supportive and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions freely.

Throughout my professional career, I've specialized in addictions and relapse prevention, and have facilitated group therapy on a wide range of topics including grief and loss, codependency, attachment styles, assertive communication, and cognitive restructuring. One of the most fulfilling aspects of my work has been providing support to survivors of human trafficking, sexual abuse, and domestic violence. With compassion, empathy, and a commitment to the healing journey, I strive to empower clients to reclaim their lives and rebuild a sense of hope and resilience.

If you're ready to take the first step towards positive change and emotional well-being, I invite you to reach out. Together, we can navigate your challenges and work towards a brighter, more fulfilling future.
