Malea Gorin

Coach

Malea Gorin is an Executive Functioning Coach and Clinical Psychology doctoral student who is passionate about helping clients find balance between flexibility and structure, strengthen their emotional awareness, and build lasting confidence in their abilities.

As a coach, Malea focuses on helping clients build structure that feels empowering rather than restrictive. She specializes in supporting children, adolescents, and young adults—particularly those who feel “stuck” or disconnected from their goals. Malea’s work focuses on helping clients develop a sense of agency, identify meaningful “wins,” and approach challenges with greater self-compassion and resilience.

Her approach is strengths-based, emphasizing values-driven action, emotion regulation, flexibility, and problem-solving skills. Malea believes in fostering autonomy through warmth, collaboration, and a focus on what truly matters to each client—and she works to create a warm, empowering space where growth feels both achievable and sustainable.
