Are you stuck in patterns of fears, confusion, indecision, or painful relationships? This stuckness and suffering hinder you from accessing the empowered, expansive, creative, organic self within; this essential part of you wants to express the unique gift that you are, and the gifts you bring to the world. Imagine beyond your struggles or limitations to become who you are truly meant to be, being more authentic, having more fulfilling relationships and manifesting your passions. Whether you are looking for further understanding, or personal tools or deeper change, I am here to support your journey.
The purpose of my work and my passion is to facilitate in a safe non-judgmental way, healing and reconnection to your more expansive genuine self, so that you may manifest your life's purpose. I work holistically with all dimensions of the human experience; physical, mental, emotional sexual, spiritual, and transpersonal.
I use mindful body-mind (somatic) centered therapies tailored to your needs. I am bilingual and multi-cultural, and have traveled & lived in many countries. These experiences, my extensive training, and clinical experience help me appreciate and be sensitive to your needs. Looking forward to meeting you. Marlon. More information see maguar.net

Groups
Men's Group: Survivors of Sexual Abuse
This group helps men understand that they are not alone and are not to blame. In a safe, supportive environment, we will use writing, emotional release exercises, and other processes to explore our feelings, confront the violation, and recognize the anger resulting from the original abuse. Gather strength, celebrate survival, and take the steps necessary to heal and move on. We are starting a new group on October 7th and still have a few openings.
