About Marilyn Spenadel

Seeing clients virtually and some in-person Spring 2021.

"Marilyn is amazing! She uses a technique during therapy called Advanced Integrative Therapy (AIT), which helped me cleanse emotions and negativity that I wished to release.  It helped me bring positivity into my life.  Her style of therapy, gentle voice, and authenticity have helped me from the first day we spoke. I absolutely recommend Marilyn's healing to anybody." - RP

 

"Marilyn Spenadel gave me effective and compassionate care as I tried to transition out of a 'stuck' place. She provided a good toolset and guidance on a positive pathway towards awareness, accountability, and resolution. From my experience, she is authentic, kind, and responsive - an excellent counselor if one is ready to change."

- KT

"I saw many therapists to help me with the difficulty I was having with one of my sons. I was recommended to see Marilyn by a friend and had never heard of AIT. I completed two sessions of AIT, both with the goal of loving my son for who he is and opening my heart. The results were immediate. It was amazing to see that I was no longer irritated and frustrated by him. I can now hug him genuinely, kiss him goodnight with an open heart and talk to him when he's having a meltdown without feeling triggered by his emotions. I think AIT is a wonderful tool to help with struggles that aren't resolved with any other therapy. Marilyn is a wonderful therapist and guide for this heart-opening work!" - DP, 2/2020

 

"Marilyn, I want to thank you very much for your help, with the AIT approach, when I was going through an intense loss that triggered old losses. Your help in identifying and verbalizing what I wanted to change and your skill in helping me to work out the intention to change through my body gave me immediate relief from utter feelings of sadness and feeling overwhelmed. I have not returned to my original level of sadness and hopelessness since you worked with me many months ago.  You helped me tremendously.” - JS, LCSW
