Marilyn is a great listener and very supportive. She understands I need a cheerleader and acceptance at this moment while encouraging me to grow in healthy ways.

Marilyn is my first therapist ever and she is amazing. I couldn't ask for anyone better. She genuinely cares about me and makes herself available when I need her. She is very experienced and great listener.

I was surprised how quickly Marylin and I were able to "get to work" on my marital and personal problems. I have only done two sessions with Marylin, but after the first one, the homework was extremely helpful, and I saw immediate improvement and a glimmer of hope. Also: a lovely wry sense of humor when remaining compassionate.
