More about Marvin
- 1 year's experience

- LPCMHSP
My path to becoming a therapist began early, witnessing firsthand the profound effects of mental illness, addiction, and trauma. This personal experience fueled a deep desire to help others, leading me to dedicate my career and education to mental health. I earned my M.A. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, specializing in mental illness, addiction, and supporting children and families. My Ph.D. in Public Health further enriched my understanding of holistic well-being. In our sessions, I blend clinical expertise with a client-centered approach, ensuring your journey guides our work.
