Alina Turpin

Hello, I am a marriage and family therapist with 11 years of experience. It is my intention to support you by drawing on my personal and professional wisdom to help you identify your feelings, cultivate clarity, and to build upon your inherent strengths. I encourage the release of emotional resistance by asking questions, extending empathy, and offering feedback to help you gradually calibrate yourself into alignment with your creative potential for intrapersonal and interpersonal harmony. I specialize in working with individuals and couples who identify as highly sensitive, intuitive, and/or empathic. Many of my clients identify as BIPOC, NBPOC, and/or POC allies who may also identify as LGBTQIA+, non-monogamous, non-heteronormative, and/or non-binary. I strive to create an inclusive and safe space to honor shadow integration and consensual deviation from dominant social norms. I believe that it is the practice of prioritizing personal emotional safety and the authentic integration of all aspects of the wholistic self that forms the foundation of all healing relationships. I specialize in sexual abuse trauma, relational trauma, spiritual emergency trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, anger, grief, shame, guilt, infidelity, codependency, childhood abuse, and prior domestic abuse (verbal, emotional, and physical). I deliver straightforward insight with warmth, empathy, and unconditional positive regard to offer solid guidance. It is my intention to activate my clients to expand into a more intimate knowing of themselves and the language of their intuition which deepens intimacy with oneself and with others.
