I have experience helping clients of different age groups and with various mental health issues. My ideal client is someone who suffers from depression/ anxiety/Bipolar disorder, has relationships issues or difficulties to cope with work, school or life transitions stressors. Also, I like to help immigrants adjusting to living in the USA, especially clients from the former Soviet Union. I am fluent in English and Russian languages.
I believe in human capacity for positive change and overcoming adversity. One should never lose hope. I use a gentle and creative approach to guide my clients on their journey to healing and growth. I believe that one approach can not fit all and draw from various therapeutic approaches, such as CBT, Interpersonal Therapy, Mindfulness, Client Centered, and Solution Focused Therapy, to accommodate my clients' personal needs.
I will make you feel comfortable and safe to explore and share your inner struggles, aspirations and what you expect from therapy. WE collaborate and come up with a treatment plan together based on your needs and preferences. I believe that a client is expert in his/her/their own life, and I am just a "navigator"
