Hey Y’all! My name is Marvin and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Austin, TX. I graduated with a Master’s degree of Marriage and Family Therapy at Whitworth University and graduated from St. Edward’s University with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology. 

I have experience working with relationships, communication, anxiety, depression, and disordered eating. I previously worked as a primary therapist at Center for Discovery with folks in eating disorder recovery treatment. My therapeutic experience ranges from adolescents to adults in individual, family, or couples sessions. I work from a strengths-based client-centered approach with additional training on Emotion-Focused Therapy to connect with attachment needs and help heal through establishing a secure attachment in relationships.

I am originally from Germany and moved around pretty frequently while my dad was in the military. This helped me to experience and appreciate many different cultures while also helping to establish who I am. Being a Black German American provides me with a unique understanding of those cultures in which I intersect.  I am passionate about providing a safe and genuine space for folks who have been overlooked or misunderstood and helping them to feel seen. I am fat positive, anti-diet culture and LGBTQ+ affirming.
