Hi, I'm Marili!

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor based in California. My passion is helping adults and couples build meaningful connections and find their path to self-empowerment and growth.

Growing up, I was the curious one, always asking questions and genuinely interested in the lives of others. This natural curiosity led me to therapy, where I could channel that passion into helping people gain deeper insights into their own lives.

I offer fully virtual sessions to clients across California, making therapy accessible and convenient for those I work with. My approach is about the client—client-centered and humanistic. I am trained in EMDR therapy and the primary focus of my work integrates the AIP model and ego state "parts" work to help you understand your current and past experiences. I often educate, integrate strength-based methods, and draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness techniques as needed to support you in reaching your goals. For couples, I bring in Gottman Couples Therapy techniques to foster healthier, more fulfilling relationships.

I know finding the right therapist can be tough. That's why I commit to meeting you exactly where you are in your journey, while gently challenging you to grow. If you're ready to start making changes or if you have any questions, please reach out via my contact page!
