Я лицензированный психотерапевт и инструктор по йоге в Вашингтоне и Иллинойсе. Я иммигрировала из СССР в детстве и свободно говорю по-русски. Я понимаю проблемы русскоговорящих иммигрантов в Соединенных Штатах. Я работаю с взрослыми, которые хотят иметь добрые и хорошие отношения с другими людьми. Некоторые ищут свою любовь или хотят изменить свой свой брак к лучшему. Другие вдруг понимают, что отталкивают любовь, даже когда она есть. Ко мне обращаются за помощью, потому что чувствуют тревогу, бессилие или безнадежность своей ситуации.

I see therapy as a secure space where people can explore who they are and how they can overcome whatever obstacles they may face without fear of judgment. I approach my position with compassion, patience, and a sense of humor. Opening up to a stranger is not easy, and I respect the work it takes on a client's end to participate in therapy. Clients can gain a greater sense of insight into who they are by reflecting on their identity, life experiences, and relationships with themselves and others. My background includes work with survivors of childhood trauma, LGBTQ+ clients, older adults, refugees, and young men.

You may be feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself or others. Perhaps you’re navigating grief, trauma, relational challenges, or questions of identity and meaning. You may long for a space to slow down, feel seen, and explore what’s beneath the surface. My clients often seek greater clarity, emotional freedom, and depth, not just symptom relief, but real understanding. I bring a culturally attuned and spiritually sensitive lens to therapy, honoring the complexity of each person’s story and background. If you're drawn to therapy as a space to grow, reflect, and reconnect, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.

Life is full of “shoulds.” Family, friends, and society often have a very clear idea of the path we’re supposed to be on, but we believe that peace and empowerment lie in finding your own path- worrying less about the expectations of others and more about what you want your life to look like. Taking an alternative path or changing route along the way is difficult. Therapy can help as you strive to be true to yourself on the journey. We offer a space where individuals learn to utilize their personal strengths to live their most meaningful lives, develop fulfilling relationships, and find true liberation.

You might be someone who falls fast and hard, feels emotions deeply, or finds yourself stuck in painful relationship patterns. Many of the clients I work with grew up navigating inconsistent, overwhelming, or emotionally unsafe relationships, which can shape how we learn to connect, regulate emotions, and care for ourselves as adults. Over time, we often develop survival patterns that are helpful in the moment, but can begin to create distress or interfere with relationships later in life.

Katya worked with individuals with myriad mental health symptoms. She values therapy for people because it’s an experience where individuals can open up and discover something new about themselves and because it helps people show how resilient they are, how coping skills can be helpful, and how a different mindset can really assist with challenges someone is experiencing.
