When painful experiences feel unfinished, they often show up in ways that feel confusing or overwhelming — anxiety, irritability, trouble sleeping, or a heaviness that’s hard to put into words. Many people come to therapy not because they don’t understand what’s wrong, but because they’re ready for meaningful, lasting change, even if part of them worries that looking back might make things worse.

Through EMDR and trauma-informed therapy, I help clients gently process what’s been stuck. My approach is steady, compassionate, and collaborative, allowing you to move at a pace that feels safe. Together, we work with both the mind and body to create the conditions for old emotional material to release — instead of repeat.

Over time, many clients begin to feel calmer, more grounded, and more capable in their daily lives. Reactions that once felt overwhelming become manageable, and healing shifts from something hoped for to something lived.

I am a Canadian Certified Counsellor and a Yorkville University graduate with a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology. Over the past year, I have supported adults experiencing anxiety, PTSD, trauma, stress, low self-worth, and relational challenges.

I offer sessions in English, Ukrainian, Russian, and Mandarin.
