It’s an honor for me to be a witness and support for my clients. I am again and again amazed, surprised and taught by them. I have experience seeing adults, children and families in community health and private practice setting. I’ve worked with grieving individuals and families, elders facing challenges of aging, and adults facing transitions, anxiety, and depression.

I am also certified as a Holotropic Breathwork Facilitator, which is a practice that uses breath to enter altered states of consciousness. I had a previous career as a scientist, and I still love the curiosity that comes with that.  I’ve immigrated to the US as a teen. I am fluent in Russian, and can hack it in Spanish.

I received an MA in Integral Counseling Psychology from CIIS (California Institute of Integral Studies). I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist #120623.
