Whether you are navigating personal challenges or seeking to strengthen your relationships, I offer you my guidance with professionalism and empathy. My goal is to help you achieve meaningful personal growth and cultivate deeper, more fulfilling connections. You are not alone on this path, and I am here to support you every step of the way. With best regards, Iryna

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

For those who are new to therapy, the first session can understandably bring about feelings of anxiety. This is completely normal, so there's no need to worry. Our primary aim during this initial session is to establish a comfortable atmosphere and begin building a professional relationship, which is fundamental to the success of our therapeutic journey together. Simply come as you are, relax, and embrace the experience. Let's take this first step together and embark on this journey with a sense of ease and openness.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I strongly believe in the transformative power of therapeutic relationships with my clients, where healing and growth can flourish. Rather than fixating on labels and diagnoses, my approach is rooted in celebrating and nurturing the unique strengths and qualities that each individual brings to our work together. This warm and welcoming perspective allows us to embark on a journey of self-discovery and empowerment, paving the way for positive change and holistic well-being.

My treatment methods

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

IFS creates a connection between the internal (unconscious) and external (conscious) realms by helping individuals in gaining access to their own Self-energy and, from there, gaining a better understanding and healing of their inner parts.

Couples Counseling

Assisting partners in restoring an emotional connection with each other by finding ways to communicate respectfully, compassionately, and constructively.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

By replacing automatic negative thoughts with rational ones, CBT can help individuals improve emotional difficulties, depression, and anxiety. CBT identifies, challenges, and replaces faulty thoughts with more objective and realistic ones.

EMDR

EMDR's primary objective is to modify the emotions, thoughts, or behavior that resulted from a distressing experience (trauma). Recognizing the difference in how our brain stores normal and traumatic memories allows me to bridge the gap between what we experience (feel, hear, see) and the information our brain stores in memory through language.
