MS • Therapist
About
Embracing the power of storytelling in therapy, Marlene Soto, MS, brings a unique perspective to her practice, inspired by Brené Brown's wisdom: "When we deny the story, it defines us. When we own the story, we can write a brave new ending." As a therapist, Marlene is dedicated to walking alongside her clients, helping them create brave new endings to their unique life stories.
Marlene's practice is characterized by her strong passion for working with a diverse range of clients, including children, teens, and adults. She brings a warm and empathic approach to therapy, creating a safe space for clients to explore their thoughts and feelings. Her expertise lies in assisting individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, life transitions, and stress management.
With a background that spans across the Pacific, Marlene brings a unique blend of experiences to her practice. Although a California native, she received her Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Hawaii at Manoa in 2020. Recently, she completed her Master of Science in Counseling Psychology at Chaminade University of Honolulu, Hawaii in 2024, further honing her skills and knowledge in the field.
As a therapist working towards full licensure, Marlene operates under the clinical supervision of R. Allie Coughlin, LPC-MHSP, ensuring that her clients receive the highest standard of care. She offers both in-person and virtual sessions, providing flexibility to meet her clients' needs.
When not in the therapy room, Marlene enjoys a well-rounded life that informs her practice. She finds joy in reading, spending quality time with friends and family, exercising, and playing with her Border-Collie mix dog, Dallas. These personal interests contribute to her holistic approach to mental health, recognizing the importance of balance and self-care in one's life journey.
