About Marie
As a licensed therapist in California with nearly three decades of clinical experience, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients address challenges like depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and life transitions, with a compassionate and faith-informed approach.
I understand the unique needs of older adults and those seeking a conservative, Christian-oriented therapeutic experience. My work focuses on healing core emotional wounds, including self-love, communication difficulties, life purpose exploration, and managing feelings of guilt and shame.
My therapeutic approach is deeply rooted in understanding attachment dynamics, supporting caregivers, addressing chronic health challenges, and helping individuals work through panic attacks, posttraumatic stress, and abandonment concerns. I’m particularly committed to serving military veterans and older adults experiencing age-related emotional transitions.
I believe in creating a supportive, respectful environment where clients can explore their inner world, develop resilience, and move toward meaningful personal growth. My goal is to walk alongside you with empathy, wisdom, and genuine care as you navigate your unique healing journey.
