Great to meet you!

I began my psychology studies in Ukraine where I completed a Specialist Degree from Rivne Institute of Slavic Studies of Kiev University in 2002. I earned my second Bachelor’s Degree in 2008 and a Master’s Degree in Professional Counseling from Georgia State University in 2011. I have been practicing Play Therapy since 2012 and have earned Registered Play Therapy Supervisor Certification granted by Association for Play Therapy.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I believe that every one of my clients, regardless of age, has innate inner wisdom, beauty, strength, and self-direction to ameliorate or overcome their issues. I build relationships with my clients that help them feel safe, cared for, and accepted. The environment which I provide encourages my clients to open up, experience, test, and learn new ways of being.

What you can expect from our first session

I would be honored to help you and your family. Together we will find the path of over-coming the issues with which you are struggling. I will help you to build a sense of your confident, motivated, loving, responsible and authentic self.
