“When the world tells you to shrink, expand.”
― Elaine Welteroth, More Than Enough: Claiming Space for Who You Are
Life doesn’t come with a guidebook, and sometimes it can feel overwhelming, chaotic, or even
isolating—like you’re drowning in it all. But you don’t have to face these challenges alone. I’m
here to offer you a safe, supportive space where we can navigate both the highs and lows
together. As a client-centered therapist, I take a strengths-based approach to help you reconnect
with yourself, empowering you to take charge of your life once again.
Whether you are facing anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, parenting challenges, identity
exploration, life transitions, coming out, or anything in between, my goal is to help you work
through these challenges in a way that honors your individual journey. I use a variety of
therapeutic methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems,
Emotionally Focused Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and trauma-informed care, to give you
the tools you need to move forward with confidence.
I’m passionate about working with individuals (children, teens, and adults), couples, and
families, especially those from multilingual and multicultural backgrounds, as well as the
LGBTQ+ community. Our unique life experiences shape who we are and how we navigate the
world, and I believe that honoring and celebrating cultural differences is essential in the
therapeutic process. I am intentional in creating a space where your cultural values are respected,
celebrated, and incorporated into your healing journey.
Wherever you are in your journey, I am here to guide you towards peace, clarity, and growth.
Together, we will uncover your inner strength and resilience, helping you move forward with a
renewed sense of purpose and self-empowerment.
I received my Master’s of Art in Marital and Family Therapy from the University of San Diego. I
offer services in both English and Russian, with options for telehealth and in-person sessions.
I look forward to connecting with you in our first session!
