I work with people who are self-aware, curious, and ready to understand themselves more fully—those who think in connections, notice patterns, and experience the world with depth and intention. If you have ever felt that therapy should meet you at the level where you live, feel, and think, without asking you to simplify yourself to be understood, I would like to offer that space.

My goal is to balance the precision of a therapeutic perspective with the warmth of genuine human contact. I don't see these as opposing forces, but as two elements that belong together in service of a person’s full complexity. Together, we look at the themes that show up across your relationships and decisions. This is where the first step of a meaningful change often begins. After our work together, clients often find they move through the world with a renewed creative agency, a steady sense of power, and a present groundedness—a sense of being the author of their responses rather than a bystander to their patterns.

My Approach & Specializations
Trained in Sensorimotor and Gestalt therapy, I work with adults (25+) with a deep attention to what lies beneath the surface. I help clients navigate major life transitions—including those internal shifts that may not be visible to the outside world.

As a bilingual therapist speaking both English and Russian,  my own experience navigating life across different languages and cultures has given me a particular appreciation for the parts of our inner lives that live in-between. This perspective allows me to understand the profound disorientation of transitions—whether you are moving between careers, countries, or versions of yourself. I aim to be a steady, warm, and genuinely present companion, offering a space where you can arrive fully, exactly as you are. I look forward to meeting you there.
