Life is full of challenges and transitions. I’ve experienced many in my life like moving from my home country of Ukraine, parental divorce, losing loved ones, traveling to over 18 countries, earning my Masters in Clinician Mental Health Counseling, and navigating anxiety and depression. The ups and downs forged me into the person I am today and helped me discover a resilience I once didn’t know was possible. Today my mission in life is to help others cultivate peace of mind while navigating life challenges. 

As a therapist, I help clients facing anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Using a person-centered approach I establish trust and provide a non-judgmental space where clients feel comfortable sharing their thoughts and feelings. I’m well versed in Positive Psychology, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic, and Motivational Interviewing. Past clients report gaining a better sense of self-understanding and relief from distressing symptoms. They describe my therapeutic style as empathetic, empowering, and motivational.  

Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, skiing, kayaking, camping, and spending time with my loved ones including my dog, Minnie. I’m an adventurer at heart and have traveled all across the world. One of my favorite trips was to South Africa where I got to volunteer at a wildcat conservation and help improve the quality of life of leopards, cheetahs, and lions. My self-care is being immersed in nature. There is nothing like walking in the woods or standing on top of a mountain.
