Hi there, I'm Marina - a registered psychologist and mum of two. I have availability to welcome new clients now with limited wait times. I work with adults who feel overwhelmed, burnt out, anxious, or stuck in a season of transition. I also work with many women who identify as an ADHDer and/or Autistic, often late diagnosed and high masking. I also support those curious about this. My approach is warm, neuro-affirming, and grounded in evidence, with plenty of space to slow things down and make sense of what’s been feeling heavy. I can support you to navigate a way forward aligned with your own values, time, energy and purpose.
My style combines empathy, flexibility and reflection. With qualifications and experience in mental health and organisational psychology, my skillset connects therapeutic care with coaching and career support. As a millennial parent I also bring my own lived experience with family neurodivergence and appreciate the highs and lows of parenting today.
I provide a relaxed, warm and welcoming space, inviting curiosity and connection. My goal is to help you feel at ease, even when the work we do together might be uncomfortable. I hope you walk away feeling seen; having been able to share in a safe space with someone who gets it. You are welcome to reach out for a free intro call as a gentle first step.
