Hello, my name is Marlene Reyes. I am a Licensed Clinical Therapist. I believe that therapy is a fundamental step to begin the process of healing and recovery. As a bilingual provider, I aspire to bridge the language barrier and dismantle the stigma associated with mental health. Not only do I utilize my experience and education but I also use my lived experience to my practice. As a second generation Mexican- American, I am able to understand the intersectionality of culture and how it may affect mental health treatment. I fully understand cultural humility and how it can contribute to one's healing process. I have worked with individuals that are experiencing some of the most difficult moments in their lives in both outpatient and inpatient settings. My favorite thing about being a provider is witnessing my client's healing journey and progress throughout therapy. My ultimate goal is to provide a safe and comfortable environment for you to begin your healing process.

Thank you Marlene for your tools during our sessions. I was able to practice and use the tools in my relationship and friendships. I was able to open up and feel that I could trust a therapist because of your approach! I can honestly say that my communication and conflict resolutions have greatly improved.
