Hello, my name is Sasha Petrovick and I’m a licensed professional counselor. I received my Master's degree from Western Connecticut State University and have been providing individual counseling for over 7 years. I specialize in treating adults 18+ with depression, anxiety, relationship and trauma related issues. I am an animal and nature lover; my family includes 3 goats and 2 rescue dogs. In my free time, I like backpacking and being out in the mountains.
I'm a genuinely warm and empathetic person and that is my approach as a counselor as well. I’ll ask you questions to help you really dig into your thoughts and explore the issues that you are facing in life and I can also provide you with tools that you can use right away. I typically work from a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approach and I also have specialized training in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), which is very effective in learning to manage emotions and tolerate distress.
My goal is to help you grow as a person, whether that be developing new perspectives, breaking unhealthy patterns or getting support through a difficult time. We’ll work together to create your individual goals and check in periodically to track your progress. I also try to end each session with something for you to reflect on.
