Hello, I'm Randy, i'm an expert in substance use disorders as well as the process addictions. I'm a certified sex addiction therapist (CSAT). I have worked in mental health for 42 years. I treat depression and anxiety. I typically treat families, couples and families to help them heal. I'm also an educator on several mental heath topics and diagnoses.
Hi there, my name is Marilyn and I have 34+ years as an experienced licensed clinical social worker specializing in substance abuse treatment and bereavement and specialize in treating depression, adjustment disorders, and mental health related to health issues.
I hold both a bachelors and masters degree in social work.
I want to hear your story, honor your strengths, and foster a sense of control over your life. It is my passion to help people move their lives in a more fulfilling direction one step at a time while taking care to build a solid, strong foundation. I will work with you from a place of genuine respect and warmth. I use a holistic-based, person-centered approach, exploring the roots of behaviors/thought patterns and how they inform the present. I can help you build your self-confidence, set healthy boundaries, repair relationships, and lessen the hold anxiety and depression have had over your life.
You’ve spent years protecting everyone else—your children, your partner, your household, and your career. It’s time to build a life you don’t have to constantly try to escape from. Real strength isn’t enduring a toxic cycle or silently surrendering your happiness; real strength is choosing the blueprint for your next chapter. If you are a dedicated father or mother quietly burning out to keep a fragile family dynamic intact, or a parent enduring the crushing grief of child estrangement, you do not have to carry this heavy isolation alone anymore.
For years, you may have believed that self-sacrifice was the ultimate proof of love. Society tells fathers to suppress their pain and keep producing, while telling mothers to give until they have nothing left. But holding everything together behind closed doors comes at a steep price. You end up feeling like an outsider in your own home, exhausted by the relentless pressure, or operating on autopilot. That persistent weight in your chest isn't a failure—it is your original self reminding you that protecting your family shouldn't require destroying your own mental health.
Clients who work with me quickly realize that I am not a passive therapist who sits in silence and nods. As a published author and clinician, I am a grounded, empathetic, and direct partner who deeply respects your time and intelligence. My practice is built around structured, real-world solutions rather than endless, circular processing. I bring warmth, clinical expertise, and enough practical humor into the room to immediately take the edge off the stress you've been carrying.
By taking this step to reclaim your emotional stability, identity, and personal peace, you aren't being selfish—you are becoming the steady, grounded leader and parent your family actually needs. Reaching out is often the hardest part, but you have already taken the first step. Let's begin rebuilding your peace today.
Life is about maintaining balance in all aspects, through love. There is so much out there to learn and grow from, so why not have fun doing it? A little about me: I love going to CrossFit every morning. I am a huge nerd, constantly listening to audibles and/or podcasts such as Huberman Lab and non-fiction books. I enjoy being outdoors: snowboarding, motorcycle/dirt biking, hiking, any movement &traveling. My parents are from Peru, so I visit there often. Tambien hablo español! Therapy can help your understanding of where your emotions come from connecting the past to the present, and decreasing the intensity by making sense of it.
Currently, I am offering tele-health sessions only, with availability M-TH from 9:00am to 2:30pm. I am unable to offer appointments outside of these hours. If that works for you, let me know if you’re interested in booking a session, or if you’d prefer to start with a brief 10-15 minute phone consultation!
First and foremost, I enjoy meeting people, getting to know the way they think, making people comfortable, and then seeing how I can help or support. I enjoy seeing people grow through their challenges and find progress in their goals. I've spent much of my career working in psychiatric hospitals managing crisis, doing family and adolescent counseling, and have built several addiction counseling programs. I and am currently working as the Clinical Director for an addiction medical clinic, but looking at building up my private practice for more independence. I'm always up to learning something new as I meet new people, and am looking forward to seeing how I can help.
Many people struggle with feeling different, strange, or like others do not relate to them well. Many people feel like they have to hide who they are and have no place to be themselves. This goes for the person with depression who needs to reshape their relationships; the person with PTSD facing their painful past; and the gay person grappling with the consequences of coming out or not.
I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with over 30 years of experience. I attended the University of Utah and received a BS in Sociology, I received my Masters of Social Work at the University of Southern California (USC).

I became very interested in working with bereavement and was certified as a bereavement counselor and have run grief support groups. I was a member of the Oncology Social Workers Association and was chair of a local chapter for many years. I was a member of the Association of Spinal Cord Injury Professionals (ASCIP) and sat on their Board for 2 years. I have a great interest in treating trauma from many sources such as first responders, military, police and firefighters and have been trained in EMDR and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART).
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and I love the outdoors and most anything to do with water (boating, fishing, sailing, etc.). I have 25+ years of experience helping people as a clinical social worker. My practice has been primarily geared toward adults. I have particular expertise in men's issues.
I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor. As a counselor, I have worked in public schools, adult and youth residential facilities, online counseling, wilderness programs, private practice, and mental health facilities. My areas of expertise include sexual abuse, domestic violence, substance abuse, parenting, and leadership. I have presented at many local, state, and national professional conferences and have taught many masters’ level mental health courses for the past 20+ years. Currently, I am the Assistant Program Director and Associate Professor of Counseling at Rocky Mountain University of Health Professions.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist serving clients across California, I offer a warm, down-to-earth space where you can show up fully as yourself. I especially enjoy working with men and the unique challenges they may carry, whether that means navigating relationships, stress, identity, anger, or simply feeling stuck. I’m also very comfortable working with people who have personality disorders, and I bring patience, honesty, and compassion to that work.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over five years of experience in the mental health field. I began my career working directly with adolescent girls in a residential setting. This experience shaped my passion for creating safe and supportive spaces where people feel seen, understood, and valued. I later earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Kentucky and have worked across inpatient, residential, and outpatient settings with both adolescents and adults.
Throughout my career, I have supported clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, eating disorders, substance use, and other behavioral health challenges. My approach is compassionate, trauma-informed, and person-centered, drawing from evidence-based approaches such as CBT and DBT while also incorporating attachment theory, somatic-informed interventions, and other approaches tailored to each individual.
I believe therapy is a collaborative process, and I strive to create a space where you can be honest, feel safe enough to explore difficult experiences, and also feel empowered to make meaningful changes. My goal is to meet you where you are while helping you better understand yourself, build lasting tools for coping and connection, and move toward the life you want to create.
