Have you spent your life trying to be “the strong one,” holding everything together while quietly falling apart inside? I work with adults who look like they have it all together, high-achieving, responsible, and driven, but who carry an exhausting inner world of self-criticism, pressure, and quiet pain. Many are first-generation Americans, immigrants, and professionals who’ve learned to survive by pushing harder, achieving more, and never letting their guard down. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or trapped in an endless loop of self-doubt, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to keep doing this alone.
My approach is psychodynamic, depth-oriented, trauma-informed, and culturally attuned. I help clients explore how early relationships, cultural histories, and family dynamics shape who they are today. Whether you’re carrying generational pain or the pressure to always be “enough,” depth psychotherapy & EMDR can bring clarity, relief, and lasting change.
Fluent in English, Russian, and Hebrew, I especially enjoy working with individuals whose identities span countries and cultures. My clients often tell me they feel both seen and gently challenged in our work together. Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you. It’s about making space for all parts of you to exist without shame. Ready to get started? Let’s talk.
