Marina Lujan
Associate Marriage & Family Therapist
Hello! I’m Marina.
My path to becoming a therapist stemmed from a pivotal moment in my life when I experienced firsthand the incredible impact of therapy during a challenging period. That personal experience of finding support during a tough time ignited my passion for assisting others in navigating their own struggles.
Specializing in helping clients work through the effects of trauma, I also focus on areas such as anxiety, depression, interpersonal difficulties, family conflict, and life transitions.
My clients range from adolescents aged 12 and up to adults. I understand that every individual's therapeutic journey is unique, so I tailor each session to meet their specific needs, empowering them to create positive change.
My Approach
Within my practice, I employ various modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I also integrate mindfulness and somatic therapy to help clients develop healthy coping strategies and progress towards healing.
My goal is to facilitate my clients' progress in a personalized and holistic manner. I place great importance on fostering a positive therapeutic relationship, creating a safe and non-judgmental environment where clients feel truly seen and at ease. Together, we identify and tackle obstacles that may be impacting their quality of life, working collaboratively to overcome them.
I aspire for my clients to leave our therapeutic journey equipped with a renewed sense of self, resilience, and purpose. Throughout our sessions, they gain a deeper understanding of themselves, their emotions, and their past experiences, enabling them to navigate the present and envision a more promising future. Ultimately, my aim is to provide clients with the tools and insights needed to lead a fulfilling and balanced life—not just surviving, but thriving.
If you're ready to take the next step towards healing and connection, please reach out and schedule a session. I'm here to support you every step of the way.
