Great to meet you!

There's a kind of anxiety that follows you into every room, even the ones that are supposed to feel safe. I work with teens, adults, and seniors who are carrying that weight, often alongside trauma or a life transition that's thrown everything off balance. I also work with Russian speaking clients who want to be understood in their own language, not just translated. My focus is helping you feel grounded again: more confident in your own decisions, and understood instead of explained away.

My approach to therapy

Our work together is collaborative. I bring the tools, but you set the pace, and we build a plan around what actually fits your life rather than a one size fits all process. I go deep on anxiety and trauma specifically, because those are the places where people most often feel stuck and unheard, and where the right support can make the fastest difference. By the end of our work, you'll walk away with real strategies for managing anxiety day to day, a clearer relationship with your own story, and a sense that you're no longer carrying it alone. I tend to work best with clients who want an active, honest partnership rather than someone who just listens and nods.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is simple: no pressure, no need to have the right words ready. We'll talk about what's bringing you in, what's felt hardest lately, and what you're hoping will be different. I'll explain how I work, answer anything you're wondering about, and we'll leave with a clear sense of where to go next. If any of this sounds like what you've been looking for, I'd be glad to hear from you.
