About Marina

Graduated from UCLA with a degree in Cognitive Science and Gender Studies and pursued a career in digital art and UX Design. During Covid I underwent a life transition to find more meaning in my work and began working as an ABA specialist with children and adults on the autism spectrum for 3 years. The process of forming deep life long relationships and witnessing transformation moved me and inspired me to pursue my masters in counseling therapy at USF where I am currently working towards my Marriage and Family Therapist License. I looove kids and often connect with them because I have a strong inner child as well. Former bosses and families would describe me as an energetic, creative, and passionate person. I believe that a therapeutic relationship creates the most optimal conditions for growth and learning and so I prioritize providing that safe space for your child where they can be seen and celebrated just as they are.
