Getting to know Marina Jamghartanian
As a licensed therapist with a Master of Arts degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Pacific Oaks College in Pasadena, California, I bring a wealth of academic knowledge and practical experience to my psychotherapeutic practice. Grounded in a Humanistic approach, my therapeutic stance is characterized by empathy, authenticity, and a commitment to fostering personal growth. I incorporate elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to target specific cognitive patterns and behaviors, providing practical strategies for immediate challenges. My expertise spans diverse age groups, including children, adolescents, and adults, as well as couples and families. Drawing on the principles of Psychodynamic Psychology, I explore the influence of the unconscious mind on current behaviors, unraveling patterns that may contribute to clients' well-being. Additionally, I utilize Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to enhance mindfulness and promote psychological flexibility. For those seeking emotion-focused interventions, I implement Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for individuals and couples, concentrating on cultivating secure emotional bonds. Furthermore, I integrate Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to assist clients in managing intense emotional experiences and navigating interpersonal challenges. I am certified in trauma-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy and the MAP system (Managing and Adapting Practice), further enhancing my ability to provide professional, effective, and client-centered psychotherapy services.

What is your typical process for working with clients?
In our therapeutic journey, my process is centered around creating a personalized and collaborative space tailored to your unique needs. A typical session begins with a comprehensive intake session, where we focus on building a strong therapeutic relationship and rapport. During this initial meeting, we'll explore the challenges you're facing and discuss your goals for therapy. This intake session is crucial for gathering essential information and establishing a foundation for our work together. Subsequent sessions will delve deeper into these challenges, drawing from various therapeutic modalities to develop insights and strategies.

Marina is the BEST! I decided to revisit my metal health after 3 prior experiences with therapists that didn't feel like they were effective. From day 1, Marina made it easy and comfortable for me, listening to me and constantly keeping me on track with my goals. Her guidance was very comforting and she made it easy to achieve what I want by making realistic and approachable methods for me to follow. My well-being and mental health has changed significantly because of Marina. I appreciate her help and will continue to check in, as her guidance is crucial for me.
