Mariahn Gillian MA LLP (Limited
Licensed Psychologist)
I am a therapist who believes that people can be helped
to identify and heal from the pain in their life. Through
my 30 years of experience as a therapist I have found
that it's not often what happens to us in life that determines
our experience, it's how we respond to what happens.
I help people to identify life patterns and ways of thinking
that effect their experiences. Through the use of cognitive,
psychological and experiential techniques I help them
to learn more effective responses. My career has included
work as a crisis counselor, a facilitator of groups,
a resource advisor for retirement programs, and a leader
in Youth Ministry. I am a therapist both as a profession
and as a calling. I believe that God wants us to experience
compassion and understanding in our lives. I am grateful
for the opportunity to play my part in creating this
experience for others.

In my life I have been given the opportunity to grow through my various
experiences by working with the techniques I utilize as a therapist.
Since I have been blessed with this gift it is my desire to make this
available to others. Not only do I do this through my therapy with individuals
and couples, but also through writing articles for the newspaper and
giving presentations on topics including Depression, Anxiety, Stress
Management, Life Transitions, Anger Management and Relationship Issues.
