About Alexandra Marino, RP, DPC

White Living Room

Integrative Psychotherapy

I practice trauma-informed & integrative psychotherapy, with a heavy influence of Attachment Theory, Parts Work and the interconnected role of our nervous system (somatic-focused, Somatic EMDR). 

 

Discovering your own adaptive, survival-based responses and stored somatic (body) experiences can assist you in becoming your own guide, regulator and support. 

 

I have a wide treatment scope, however I specialize in working with complex trauma and its various manifestations for both adolescents and adults.

​

I believe that we are innately pulled towards health, therefore I believe in your capacity to move towards a healthier & happier version of yourself.

Philosophy

Innate Resiliency

I acknowledge the feeling of overwhelm that some may have towards therapy. This understanding enables me to be genuine & intentional within my work. 

 

I enter each relationship with new energy, focusing our time on your unique goals.

​

I work as a facilitator, guiding you in accessing your innate resiliency.

​

I truly enjoy working with people and value the collaborative therapeutic process.
