Have you wondered if Dialectical Behavioral Therapy can be helpful to your adolescent or young adult? I offer a complimentary consultation to answer any question you may have. I have extensive experience working with adolescents and adults to more effectively regulate emotions, reduce problematic behavior and enhance problem-solving skills. I provide a time-limited, goal directed, and structured treatment to help your child work through their challenges and learn to become their own therapist. I work well with parents and clients often see a reduction of symptoms early on in treatment.

Katerina believes that the foundation of a good and positive therapeutic experience is developing a strong relationship between the therapist and the client. She believes that by showing empathy and unconditional regard, as well as collaborating with the client in their treatment, a client can feel safe and comfortable to begin the work of understanding themselves and the world. As well as an emphasis on the client-therapist relationship, Katerina also uses a broad range of modalities, focusing highly on Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy as well as Psychodynamic Therapy.

I have 20 years of experience as a psychotherapist working with individuals and couples in NYC. I am a non-judgmental, compassionate, and very supportive therapist. I have experience with adults of all ages coping with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, family conflict, life goals, loss, pregnancy and new motherhood, and a variety of other therapeutic issues. I also work with patients who may just need someone on the outside of their daily lives to talk with, in order to be the best version of themselves. I believe that flexibility and drawing from different therapeutic modalities is the best way to create positive changes.

Are you feeling depressed, anxious, or unhappy in your current circumstances? Life can be incredibly overwhelming. My goal is to provide you with the space to process, heal, and learn how to navigate modern life confidently.

Perhaps you are feeling your lowest, or are struggling to adjust to one of life’s many transitions. Maybe you are having difficulty connecting to others in your close relationships, or you are just looking to understand yourself better and grow into the best possible version of yourself. I work with adults of all ages and specialize in young adults. I am trained to work with a variety of clinical concerns, and I have a particular focus on working with college students, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and people from a variety of sociocultural backgrounds.

I am a fully licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) providing therapy for individual adults and couples.

The combination of insight, as well as concrete strategies to help regulate your emotions and live more in tune with your desires, can help create lasting changes in your life.
