Margie Mirell, MFT #25701
Margie Mirell’s journey to becoming a psychotherapist was built on a combination of many varied life experiences. Having a bachelor’s degree from California State University at Northridge, magna cum laude, in both Psychology and Art, she continued her education by attending many seminars and conferences. Margie, after College, worked for 10 years as a Vice President of Marketing for a mid-sized computer company during the 1980’s. After not having been satisfied with the business world, Margie decided to search for and achieve her dream profession, Psychology. The experience and process of this second profession has provided her with understanding. Her goal is now and always has been to help people in dealing with the every day, the unusual challenges of life and to achieve the goals they have set for themselves. She followed her life dream at Antioch University, after years of study, and the Jungian analysis she uses today with her clients. Along with an internship at North Hollywood Hospital specialized in Eating Disorders and Addictions. She has been told by her clients that her life experiences and empathy for people working to solve their challenges make her a therapist who understands the real world and the struggles to achieve life’s goals with a sense of inner peace and joy, we all seek.

PHILOSOPHY:
I have a passionate belief that a deep sense of resilience and personal happiness results from healing our past and dealing with present life experiences. This process of understanding our past wounds allows for new healthy relationship, communication and decisions. Old destructive patterns are transformed into safe conversations, positive relationships and healthy behavior patterns.
“We are born in relationships, we are wounded in relationships, and we can be healed in relationships” Harville Hendrix.
