If anxiety, trauma, identity questions, or a relationship reaching its breaking point has brought you here, there's no pressure to have the right words. We'll figure it out together.

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California working with adults navigating these exact challenges. I specialize in working with LGBTQ+ clients and Russian-speaking adults, and I offer sessions in both English and Russian.
