About Marena


I believe every individual is the expert on their own lives, and that each has innate strengths they can draw upon. I have helped people to grow, notice patterns, and gain insights, and through this, to reclaim control of their lives. I appreciate that the past plays a significant role in shaping who we are and how we view and manage situations, and so I respect each person’s upbringing, experiences, and differences: these are what make us unique! As such, I recognize that no single model or intervention works with everyone – there is no “one-size-fits-all” approach. Instead, I tailor sessions and interventions based on you, your experiences and needs, and your specific presenting issues.

Leading with empathy and compassion, I strive to provide a safe, non-judgemental environment where you feel heard and understood. In such a space, I can help you to gain insight and better understand your experiences, and then work collaboratively with you to address whatever issues you are facing. Through this process, I want to help you to find hope, move forward, and ultimately, reach your goals. Need help on where to start? To see if we are the right fit to work together, or to ask any questions you might have, you can use the links on this page to book a free 15-minute phone consultation. You can also use these links to book your first session. Looking forward to beginning our journey together!
