I offer psychotherapy and psychoanalysis to individuals seeking to not only discover solutions for their life concerns but also to gain a greater understanding of their inner lives and shift long-standing patterns in their relationships and career. My work is suited for individuals seeking deeper insights, meaning, and relational changes toward greater engaging with themselves, others, and the world. I especially work with concerns related to life changes and transitions, losses, entrenched symptoms or habits, sexuality, creativity, and generational or present-day trauma. Я працюю з українцями з діаспори та новими іммігрантами.
I am licensed psychologist and am Board Certified (Psychoanalysis) by the ABPP. I earned a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology and a Doctoral Minor in Women and Gender Studies from the University of Missouri-Columbia. I hold a certificate in Contemporary Psychoanalysis from the National Training in Psychoanalysis (New York City). Я працюю українською мовою.
I am Board Certified in Psychoanalysis and am a member of the American Psychoanalytic Association, the International Psychoanalytic Association, and the International Forum for Psychoanalytic Education.
