About
Do you feel high-functioning on the outside but emotionally exhausted inside—struggling with anxiety, self-doubt, or painful relationship patterns that keep repeating? I provide psychotherapy in English and Russian for adults navigating these challenges. Many of my clients come after narcissistic relationships, emotional neglect, or attachment wounds. Together we explore the deeper emotional roots of these struggles so meaningful and lasting change becomes possible. I specialize in Schema Therapy, an evidence-based approach that helps heal the deeper patterns shaping relationships, self-worth, and emotional regulation. Rather than focusing only on coping skills, we work to transform the emotional patterns that keep repeating so clients can build stronger boundaries and healthier relationships. I offer telehealth sessions throughout Florida and in-person therapy in Boca Raton, with additional availability in Delray Beach and Fort Lauderdale. I also offer a brief consultation so you can ask questions, learn about my approach, and see whether working together feels like the right fit for you. Specialties: I work with clients who struggle with overthinking, emotional overwhelm, and feeling stuck in repetitive patterns. Behind every behavior is an underlying emotion. In therapy, we focus on reconnecting with primary emotions and understanding unmet needs. As these needs are addressed, emotional distress eases, patterns shift, and you can move toward a more balanced, fulfilling life. Credentials & Experience: With my medical background, I am equipped to work with severe problems and provide holistic help by connecting the body and brain.
"In my practice, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Schema Therapy. In our first session, we explore what brought you to therapy and identify different "parts" of you that influence your emotions and behavior. Our work combines insight with experiential methods, including guided imagery and chair work, to help you understand your needs and create lasting change."
