My approach is client-centered empowering your resilience. I provide therapy in both English/Russian.
First session
The first session is a time to connect and acknowledge the reasons for therapy, what the hope is and planning what the journey in therapy will look like. It is a time to share feelings, ask questions and get a full understanding of the individual therapeutic process.
Strengths
I meet every individual where they are. I provide unconditional love, compassion, support, understanding, validation, encouragement. My approach is transparent and I partner with my clients in their journey. I think outside the box and create a personalized approach in goals and treatment that respect and celebrate individuality.

I am there for people in their life transitions and changes in midlife and aging clients.
