My Approach to Helping
Most of us, when going through rough times, need to feel seen and heard--to receive the full, caring attention of another human being. In addition to that, we need current information about our particular problem, and reassurance that things can get better. My clients frequently feel good when they leave because their worst fears have been voiced, their biggest problems appear to be workable, and we have shared a laugh or two. I have plenty of training and education to bring to the table, but mostly, people just need to be reminded that they are not alone.
More Info About My Practice

Her studies in psychology and spirituality have taken her from Myth and Fairy tales, through Jung and Astrolgy, to body oriented and Integral approaches that blend traditional psychotherapy with post-modern spirituality and consciousness. Marilyn has taught seminars and led workshops for students, clients, and other mental health professionals since 1988.
