Marina Edelman, Marriage and Family Therapist - Thousand Oaks, California

Karl Yuenger

I cannot recommend Marina highly enough. My wife and I were struggling with communication issues and felt stuck in a cycle of misunderstandings. From our very first session, Marina created a warm and welcoming environment that made it easy for us to open up.

Her expertise in marriage counseling was evident as she guided us through our challenges with empathy and professionalism. Marina used a variety of techniques, including role-playing and effective communication strategies, which helped us understand each other better.

One of the most significant changes we've experienced is our ability to talk about difficult topics without escalating into arguments. Marina taught us how to express our feelings constructively, and we've noticed a real improvement in our connection.

Overall, the personalized approach and genuine care that Marina brings to each session have made a profound impact on our relationship. We are incredibly grateful for her support and guidance, and we feel more equipped to face any challenges together.

Thank you, Marina, for helping us rediscover the love and respect we have for each other!

Originally, I liked her refreshing approach. However, after year of expensive therapy, my relationship is far worse off.

I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve bragged about having a world-class therapist.

I’ve been seeing Marina for nearly two years now, both individually and for couples counseling and can co code you say that I am a better human being because of her.

Marina has absurdly high emotional intelligence and “sees me in ways I can’t.” Ive become a more complete, colorful, and emotionally balanced human being thanks to Marina.

Marina is the real deal. Back in summer of 2016 I was a working mom of two sons and my whole life stopped. I started having severe panic attacks and anxiety. It got so bad I could no longer work or drive. It was a devastating time. I didn't want to just jump on medications so I looked for an experienced therapist. After meeting with other therapists and psychiatrists - I called Marina. My first phone call with her I could tell she was different from the rest. She instantly made me feel calm and that I can overcome this. She listened to me. Those first few sessions were life saving. Marina is genuine. She didn't sit with a clipboard wasting our session (and my money) writing down notes. She looks at you and gets right down to treating her patients. Within a few months I was back driving and working full time and all without daily medication. I don't think I could have come back from the panic attacks and severe anxiety without Marina. I don't see her as often as I did in the beginning, but I still love doing sessions with her. She has helped me with all sorts of areas in my life: career paths, family stuff, parenting, relationships etc. I really do owe a lot of my success to Marina and her patience, knowledge, and heart. I truly feel she has a passion and calling for this profession and I am so grateful that our paths crossed. I highly recommend Marina to anyone that needs therapy. She also does office or FaceTime sessions which has been really convenient for me as a working mother. 🙂
