Written on Jun 20, 2026 after therapy with Svetlana for 2 weeks

It’s my first time pursuing therapy and I was at first a little uneasy about the whole process, however Svetlana had made this experience the most easy for me. Therapy sessions with her isn’t just about talking to a stranger, she creates a safe place so that I can express myself without feeling weird or awkward, it actually fells like I’m talking to a friend. Even when it comes to sensitive subjects that can be hard to mention, she always makes sure that I feel comfortable and she really tries to deeply understand my needs as much as she can. She’s really amazing at what she does and it shows that she is passionate, I truly recommend her.

Highly recommend Svetlana! She goes above and beyond to understand where you stand and what your preferences for therapy are when beginning the process. Great for someone who might not have all of the questions or topics in their head to discuss, she does a great job asking the right questions to make each session smooth, insightful and most importantly helpful to improving!

She’s an amazing therapist

Written on Aug 16, 2022 after therapy with Svetlana for 2 months on issues concerning relationship

I haven't had many therapists, but Svetlana is outstanding. She really listens and absorbs everything we say and remembers lots of little details about our lives which makes me feel like she really cares. Her suggestions and "homeworks" have also helped build our relationship stronger,, and I feel totally comfortable speaking with her.

Written on May 18, 2022 after therapy with Svetlana for 2 weeks on issues concerning stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, self esteem, anger management, and coping with life changes

I was afraid of therapists because I'd been through a lot of ones who didn't make me feel safe heard or even respected. I was so nervous talking to her I'm sure my face was red but she was warm and she listened and had a gentle approach and actually gave me things to work on instead of feeling like I'm still really doing this all by myself. I've yet to really get to know her but the most important things to me were met, she's safe.

Work with me!
