I'm trained to work with children, teens, young adults, and parents.
The skills I use can turn life’s challenges into stepping stones toward meaningful goals. They come from therapy methods (DBT and CBT) that research has shown to often work. My approach is flexible and adapts to your unique personality and culture. I was born in Bulgaria, which I left to study in Germany (Albert-Ludwigs Universität Freiburg), France (École Normale Supérieure, Paris), and the US (University of Washington, Seattle). These experiences have shaped my core belief: healing works best when it honors our culture and uniqueness as human beings.

I work with individuals, couples, and families. Counseling is an art form.... the art of listening, the ability to create visual understanding of deeply embedded meaning regarded as truth vs. constructions. Healing begins when a client feels safe enough to deconstruct and replace maladaptive beliefs and behaviors. Integrating new perspectives and a fresh understanding of old stories is a means to sustainable change - a gift of self acceptance. As a therapeutic guide, I believe that each of us is the best source of our own healing....I am there to facilitate what is already true and wise in each client.
