Psychologist

Verified

“You may look successful and in control on the outside, yet inside feel anxious, exhausted, stuck in painful relationship patterns, or unsure why the same situations keep repeating. I help adults understand what is really driving these patterns, build healthier relationships, and create meaningful, lasting change.”

About Me

I work with adults who are tired of simply coping and want to understand what is happening beneath the surface. Many of my clients are capable, ambitious and self-aware people who function well in everyday life, yet privately struggle with anxiety, relationship difficulties, perfectionism, low self-worth, emotional dependence, fear of rejection, or a constant need to stay in control. My role is not to judge you or tell you how to live. Together, we explore the patterns behind your emotions, choices and relationships including those that may have developed much earlier in life and continue to influence you today. I offer a warm, direct and thoughtful therapeutic space. I believe therapy should provide insight, but also lead to real changes in how you feel, communicate, make decisions and build relationships. I work with English, Russian and Ukrainian-speaking clients, including expats and people navigating major life transitions.

Approach

My approach is integrative and primarily informed by psychodynamic and Adlerian psychology. I am interested not only in what you are experiencing today, but also in understanding why certain emotional and relationship patterns developed and what continues to maintain them. We may explore early experiences, attachment and family dynamics, unconscious patterns, beliefs about yourself and others, coping strategies, and the roles you repeatedly take on in relationships. At the same time, our work remains connected to your present life. Insight is valuable when it creates movement. Therapy with me is therefore both reflective and practical: we identify patterns, understand their origins, and work toward new ways of responding, relating and making choices. I adapt the work to the individual rather than applying the same formula to every client.
