Marina Dormer

My communication style

My clients describe me as personable, knowledgeable, honest, understanding, and collaborative. They express feeling safe to share their full self with me without judgment. Working with me, you will receive motivation and guidance in actively pursuing your goals.

My journey to mental healthcare

My curiosity about the human mind, behavior, and emotions, accompanied by my natural ability to connect with others, has cultivated my desire to pursue therapy as a career. My passion is to help others work through their suffering and move towards well-being. I believe we are all good inside and always capable of improvement.

My goals for you

You, the client, are the expert in your life. I respect your decisions, values, and goals. When setting goals, you are in the driver's seat, and I am an active front-seat passenger providing direction and feedback as you need.

Our first session

In the first session, we get to know each other to see if we are a good fit. The flow is flexible depending on what you need and are ready to talk about. Typically, we gather history about your past, present, and goals for the future. My style is conversational, so you will have ample opportunities to ask questions throughout.
