Malky polonetsky
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps you work through anxiety, ADHD, stress, and relationship patterns that keep you feeling stuck. I use CBT and hypnotherapy to help you not only understand what’s going on, but actually change the patterns that aren’t working for you. My approach is warm, down-to-earth, and practical.
My strength is blending practical tools like CBT and EMDR with a warm, nonjudgmental approach, helping clients feel empowered to make real changes in their lives.
I want you to feel understood, supported, and more in control of your life.
First session
Before our first session, please send me a message of what days and times you are available. Grow therapy is not connected to my others schedules. In our first session, clients can expect a calm, welcoming space where we explore their main concerns and goals. We’ll talk about what brought them to therapy, begin identifying patterns, and create a plan together. I’ll answer questions and explain how I work, so clients feel comfortable moving forward.
Strengths
I’m warm and supportive, but I’m also direct and honest. I don’t want you to just talk about the same things every week without feeling like anything is changing. I help you understand what’s really keeping you stuck and give you practical tools to start doing things differently. I also use CBT and hypnotherapy when appropriate, so we can work on both the thoughts you’re aware of and the deeper patterns that may be harder to change.
Ideal clients
I work best with women struggling with anxiety, ADHD, overthinking, stress, and relationship challenges. You may understand your patterns but still feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to change them. I offer a supportive space with practical tools and deeper healing to help you quiet the mental noise, build confidence, break unhealthy patterns, and create meaningful, lasting change for yourself.
Treatment methods
Hypnotherapy
I use CBT, talk therapy, and hypnotherapy to help you quiet overthinking, break patterns that keep you feeling stuck, and feel more in control. We use practical tools to change the thoughts and behaviors that aren’t working for you, while also addressing deeper patterns that can be harder to change. My goal is to help you create changes that actually last.
