I also specialise in working with women who are juggling stressors including careers, parenting, and the perinatal period.
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.

I'm quite passionate about helping people to understand the stories that their minds hold about their sense of safety, security, worth, control and belonging. Trauma stories were created in the past, when the mind tried to make meaning from experiences that felt scary, unsafe or out of our control. The mind holds on to these stories as a way of protecting us from being hurt in the future, and replays them when it predicts future danger or suffering. But that's not the whole story. Using evidence-based, neuroscientific psychological approaches, we can process traumatic memory, distress and disturbance, and heal psychic wounds.

People come for all sorts of reasons, this is a safe space for all! Some are going through something specific. Others are in a good place and want to understand themselves better, grow, or finally make a change they've been putting off. Athletes come to work on the mental side of performance. Professionals come when work has started to cost them something. Some people just want a space to think, with someone who'll actually listen. We will use evidence-based practice as our foundation, weaving in a more holistic feel so that therapy is a nuturing and soothing experience.

Many of the men we work with aren’t in crisis. They’re capable, driven and doing well on paper. But something isn’t working. You might be shutting down in conflict, carrying quiet anger, feeling disconnected from your partner, or unsure who you are outside of work and responsibility. You want to show up better in your relationships, feel more steady in yourself, and stop repeating patterns you know aren’t working. You may have tried pushing through on your own. Now you’re ready for structured support that actually translates into real conversations, real decisions and real change.
