Welcome! I’m Ksenia, and I’m here to help guide you through life’s most challenging terrains. Just like hiking up a mountain, the journey toward emotional well-being can feel daunting at times. But with the right tools, support, and mindset, you can reach the summit and discover new perspectives along the way. In our work together, we’ll explore topics such as identity, self-esteem, personal values, and emotional or relational balance. Whether you’re dealing with past wounds, seeking greater emotional resilience, or looking to improve relationships, we’ll work collaboratively to create a life that reflects who you truly are.

I specialize in working with adults and couples, using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and the Gottman Method for couples counseling.

As someone with lived experience in mental health challenges, I understand how personal growth and healing require courage and commitment. Together, we’ll navigate through the complexities of your experiences and work toward lasting change. Let’s take that first step together—one that honors your unique path and helps you reach your goals.
