As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I am committed to supporting individuals and couples navigating anxiety, depression, and trauma, while fostering healthy relationships. Through a collaborative approach, I utilize various modalities to guide clients towards healing and personal growth. Fluent in both English and Russian, I offer a distinct cultural perspective, enhancing my ability to connect with diverse clients seeking self-discovery and resilience on their journey towards fulfillment amidst life's challenges.
