Getting to know Marina Dormer
Welcome! My name is Marina Dormer, I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and have specialized training in trauma treatment, EMDR, mood disorders, eating disorders, addiction, mindfulness stress reduction, and couples and family therapy. As a team you and I will work towards your desired goals, using evidence-based treatment approaches while relying on your life experience and my professional expertise.
My approach
As a therapist my initial focus is providing you with unconditional respect as I strive to understand your life experiences and hopes for the future. Together we create a treatment plan that meets your needs. I offer you a menu of treatment modalities which include EMDR, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, Solution-Oriented approaches, and couples/family therapy that focuses on improving the system as a whole. I have a background as a Drug and Alcohol Counselor and provide simultaneous addiction and mental health treatment.
My focus
Through my professional training and consistent continued education, I am confident in providing treatment for a majority of mental health concerns. This includes mood disorders, anxiety, eating disorders, addiction, and parenting and relationship conflict. Cultural Competency was a major focus in my Master's Program and equipped me with a foundation of understanding and continued awareness in working with diverse populations. I am also an adjunct professor and teach Master's level courses on cultural competency, sexuality, addiction, and trauma counseling.
My communication style
My clients describe me as personable, knowledgeable, honest, understanding, and collaborative. They express feeling safe to share their full self with me without judgment. Working with me you will receive far more than just a place to vent; you will receive motivation and guidance in actively pursuing your goals.
