Therapy for the overwhelmed and burnt out
I help individuals in demanding, high-stress work environments learn new ways to cope with stress and anxiety, explore career options, and/or process trauma.
Couples counseling
I help couples who are needing extra help in their relationship, whether it’s navigating a big life change, learning how to manage conflict, processing loss, wanting to reconnect and improve intimacy, or needing a space just to be able to focus on each other.
About me
Hi! I’m Marilyn…
As a former journalist turned tech marketer, I deeply understand the pressures of high-stress work environments and how they can fuel anxiety, stress, burnout, and fear, impacting life beyond the office. I enjoy working with clients who are ready to reassess what's working in their lives, what isn't, and what needs to change.
My approach to therapy is relational and psychodynamic, rooted in the belief that a strong therapeutic relationship is essential for creating psychological safety and fostering growth. As a cisgender white woman, I am mindful of how I show up in the room and how race, culture, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, socioeconomic status, and other identities shape my clients' lived experiences. I practice with curiosity, respect, and cultural humility.
I believe that every person who comes to therapy has a unique story to tell, and perhaps even a story they'd like to rewrite. I see my role as a therapist as someone who can meet you where you are and walk alongside you, wherever your journey may lead.
