Hi, I’m Marian!

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist serving the communities in and around San Ramon, California. I have always found joy in working with children and adolescents, harboring a deep desire and unwavering commitment to helping families connect with themselves and each other in a compassionate, loving manner. As a lifelong learner, I consider my work a great privilege, allowing me to continually explore the intricacies of our minds and behaviors. This ongoing learning journey enables me to offer the tailored support that my clients need.

Growing up in an immigrant family, I often encountered numerous challenges that left me feeling isolated and insecure in my own sense of self. My experiences with and understanding of how culture shapes and impacts who we are have enabled me to cultivate a deeper empathy and passion towards helping other children and families that grapple with various cultural issues, which includes exploring cultural identity and navigating generational cultural differences.

My clinical experience involves working with children and adolescents on various school campuses as well as working with adults, couples, and families at a community mental health agency.

I look forward to connecting with you and supporting you as a ‘fellow traveler’ on your journey.
