Hello, I am Polina, a Registered Provisional Psychologist. I support my clients in finding healing, growth, and connection, and I work with those experiencing relationship issues, depression, anxiety, loneliness, low self-esteem, and life transitions. I am still discovering my ideal client, and I currently work with individuals, couples, families, teenagers, and children. My approach is best characterized by a relational lens.
I use therapeutic modalities like Narrative Therapy, Person-Centered approaches, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), among others. However, it’s the therapeutic relationship that I believe is most crucial. For couples, I’m trained in Gottman Method Level 1, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and Relational Life Therapy, and I also like to draw from Imago Therapy to help with issues like intimacy, communication, infidelity, and conflict management.
Therapy is a process that takes courage—it can be challenging to start, but having a safe and trusting relationship where you feel seen and understood can make a huge difference in how you show up in the world. I’m here to provide that supportive environment, where we can explore your strengths and work through your challenges.
Outside of my professional work, I enjoy spending time with my family, exploring the city and finding unique corners of nature. I also have a creative side and enjoy working on various projects. My dream is to develop my creative writing skills and write a book sometime in the future.
If you’re ready to take the first step, I’m here to support you.
