Marilynne Chophel MFT

At the heart of my work as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (MFT) is the commitment to creating a safe, compassionate, and empowering therapeutic environment for individuals, couples, and groups. With over 25 years of experience in the field, I have had the privilege of working with a diverse range of clients, from children and adolescents to adults and seniors, from various cultural and socio-economic backgrounds.

Additionally, I have completed advanced training in the treatment of trauma, including certification in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).
