Feeling different? Do you have a sense that people don't get you? Do you travel a different path than everybody else? Are you living your life very differently from what other people expect you to? Life can be tough when you feel different. Different can also mean isolated, lonely, and misunderstood. But you can be different and still fit in. That's where I can help. I work primarily with scientists, researchers, physicians, and graduate students. Demanding careers can bring this kind of isolation, burnout, imposter syndrome, strained relationships, and pressure that's hard for people outside your field to fully understand.
I strive to tailor therapy to fit your needs. My approach is practical and straightforward, grounded in CBT and other evidence-based methods, but the relationship matters just as much as technique. It's collaborative, you're the expert on your own life, and I bring tools and an outside perspective. Together we work toward what actually helps.
I'm bilingual and bicultural, fluent in Russian, and understand how much cultural context matters when navigating a career and a new culture at the same time. I bring that understanding into our work together.
I also provide supervision for Psychology Associates and Postdoctoral supervision.
