"You are stronger than you think, braver than you believe, and smarter than you know."
A Peek Into My Practice
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
ACT is one of my favourite tools because it's all about helping you live a life guided by your values, even when things feel overwhelming. Here’s how it works: instead of fighting tough emotions or trying to “fix” everything, we focus on making space for those feelings while still moving toward what truly matters to you. Together, we’ll work on practical skills to manage emotions, build mindfulness, and break unhelpful patterns.
Somatic Interventions
Your body and mind are a team, and somatic work taps into that connection. Whether it’s tension, restlessness, or feeling stuck, our sessions can include techniques like grounding, breathing exercises, or gentle movement to help release stored stress or trauma and bring you back to a sense of calm and control.
Attachment-Focused Work
Our early relationships shape how we connect with others—and with ourselves. Attachment-focused therapy helps you understand these patterns, heal past relational wounds, and build stronger, healthier connections moving forward. It’s like reworking the blueprint of how you give and receive love and support.
Trauma-Informed Care
When life throws us experiences that feel too big or too heavy, the effects can linger. In trauma-informed therapy, we create a safe, supportive space where you can process at your own pace. Using gentle and empowering approaches, we’ll work toward healing, resilience, and reclaiming your sense of self.
Multilingual and Multicultural Support
Culture, language, and identity shape how we see and experience the world. With my multicultural background and fluency in Russian, I tailor our sessions to honor your unique story, ensuring therapy feels authentic and relatable. Whether you're processing cultural transitions or finding your voice in a new context, I’ve got you covered.
🌟 A Judgment-Free Zone: Think of this as your safe space—like a cozy couch where you can let your guard down and just be you.
🔑 Unlocking Insights: We’ll connect the dots of your story, tackle what’s weighing you down, and discover those “Oh, that makes sense” moments together.
🎯 Practical Tools: Together, we’ll explore evidence-based strategies that actually fit your life. Think of it as a toolkit designed just for you, no one-size-fits-all here!
🤝 A Collaborative Journey: It’s not about me giving advice—it’s us figuring things out side by side, with your goals leading the way.
✨ A Touch of Humor (When It Fits): Because sometimes, a little laughter is part of the healing process.
