Mariela Marin, MFT
Executive Director
I was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan where my Mexican father and my Spanish mother taught me the importance of love, being true, and building community. I am honored to walk in the path of Patricia Cooper and Jaclyn Henretig, caring for the well-being of the Santa Barbara community one phone call, client, trainee, associate, supervisor, Center supporter, and human at a time.

Sarah Marin, MBA
Director of Operations
In the non-profit world, "business" can be a nauseating concept. But the reality is: "business" is simply an idea sustained. While the success of an idea can certainly be measured in dollars, it can also be measured in the number of lives that are touched, reached, steadied, and honored. This is the business of CCEC. I am so proud to support the light that was ignited by Cooper-Henretig, and is now carried by the talent, commitment, and skill of Director Marin + the Clinical Training Staff.
