Marline Rostom, MA LMHC (Existing Patients only)

People who come to me have said that they appreciate my sense of humor, my non-judgmental demeanor, and my candidness as a therapist.

I work with men, women, adolescents and couples/families. I specialize in working with those seeking to heal trauma, manage difficult emotions, engage more effectively in relationships, and change detrimental behaviors. My treatment modality is a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy and developmental psychology: I work with you to identify and change the beliefs, thoughts, and feelings that lead to behaviors that you may want to change or stop in order to live a healthier, happier life. I also help you to identify how these beliefs developed and work towards healing the experiences that cultivated in the beliefs that may be harmful.

I utilize an arsenal of treatment modalities in order to individualize your therapy sessions. I am interested in learning about all the areas of your life that may be affecting you currently. These can include: your family of origin, psychosocial development, emotional processes, thinking patterns, the behaviors and habits that do not serve you, your relationships, your fears and worries, and anything else you would like to share.

Ultimately, I consider myself an eclectic therapist as I tailor interventions depending on my clients' needs at the time. I like the flexibility of being able to meet the client where they are, as I believe this best serves the client in the realization of therapeutic goals. I believe that every person deserves safety, dignity, and peace of mind. I am looking forward to working with people who are seeking to live their best life.
