Welcome. I’m Dasha, a bilingual therapist with an international educational and clinical perspective, having received training in both Russia and the United States. I am a graduate of Saint Mary’s University of Minnesota, where I completed my training in Marriage and Family Therapy. My global perspective has shaped the way I understand people, relationships, families, and the many cultural experiences that influence our emotional well-being.
I feel honored to walk alongside individuals, couples, and families during some of life’s most challenging and meaningful seasons. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the many changes that come with parenthood. I am especially passionate about couples and family therapy, maternal mental health, and supporting veterans and first responders.
My therapeutic approach is compassionate, collaborative, and holistic. I believe meaningful change begins with feeling truly seen, understood, and supported. I draw from evidence-informed approaches including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), the Gottman Method, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Brain-spotting, and Discernment Counseling. I have also pursued training in psychophysiology and mind-body approaches, which inform my understanding of the connection between emotional experiences, the nervous system, the body, and overall well-being.
I believe therapy should honor the whole person—not simply the symptoms they are experiencing. I tailor therapy to each individual, couple, and family, taking into consideration their unique experiences, strengths, relationships, values, culture, and goals.
Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, stuck in a difficult transition, experiencing challenges within your relationship or family, or simply longing for something to change, you do not have to navigate it alone. My hope is to provide a warm, safe, and supportive space where you can slow down, gain clarity, understand yourself and your relationships more deeply, and move toward greater connection, resilience, and meaningful change.
It would be a privilege to be part of your journey.
Dasha
