Η Ντερμπεντέρη Μαρίνα είναι Ψυχολόγος και διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στο Νέο Ψυχικό. Είναι απόφοιτη του τμήματος Ψυχολογίας του e-Campus Università Novedrate της Ιταλίας και κατέχει Μεταπτυχιακό δίπλωμα στην Κλινική και Δυναμική Ψυχολογία από το ίδιο πανεπιστήμιο. Επίσης διαθέτει πτυχίο στην Κλινική Βιοχημεία από το Humboldt Universität του Βερολίνου, από το οποίο αποκτήθηκε ισχυρό υπόβαθρο στις βιολογικές και νευροβιολογικές διαστάσεις του ανθρώπου. Έχει εργαστεί για αρκετά χρόνια τόσο στον ιδιωτικό όσο και στον δημόσιο χώρο της υγείας, συνεχίζοντας παράλληλα την επαγγελματική της εκπαίδευση μέσα από επιμορφώσεις, προσωπική ψυχοθεραπεία και εποπτεία — μια δέσμευση, που θεωρεί αναπόσπαστο μέρος της επαγγελματικής της ευθύνης, καθώς πιστεύει ότι για να σταθεί κανείς ουσιαστικά απέναντι στον άλλον, χρειάζεται να επεξεργάζεται διαρκώς και τον δικό του εσωτερικό κόσμο. Η θεραπευτική της προσέγγιση είναι κατά βάση Ψυχοδυναμική, με στοιχεία Προσωποκεντρικής προσέγγισης και τεχνικών Gestalt, ανάλογα με τις ανάγκες κάθε ανθρώπου. Στόχος της δεν αποτελεί μόνο το «τι κάνεις», αλλά και το «γιατί» — τι κρύβεται πίσω από ένα σύμπτωμα, μια επαναλαμβανόμενη δυσκολία ή ένα επίμονο συναίσθημα. Στο επίκεντρο της δουλειάς της βρίσκεται η θεραπευτική σχέση: ένας χώρος ασφαλής και εμπιστευτικός, όπου μπορεί κανείς να έρθει όπως πραγματικά είναι. Σε ένα πλαίσιο συνεργασίας μπορούν να διερευνηθούν το άγχος, η θλίψη και η απώλεια, οι δυσκολίες σε συντροφικές και διαπροσωπικές σχέσεις, ο φόβο απόρριψης ή μοναξιάς, η χαμηλή αυτοεκτίμηση, η δυσκολία στη θέσπιση ορίων, ο θυμός, ζητήματα αυτονομίας και προσωπικής ταυτότητας, ή περίοδοι κρίσης και επαναπροσδιορισμού. Η ψυχοθεραπεία είναι μια συνεργατική διαδικασία, όπου ο θεραπευόμενος είναι ο ειδικός της δικής του ζωής. Στόχος δεν είναι να εξαφανιστεί κάθε δυσκολία, αλλά να αποκτηθεί μεγαλύτερη επίγνωση, εσωτερική σταθερότητα και ελευθερία επιλογής.
