Her Approach: Deeply Experiential, Emotionally Safe

Tatyana’s practice is rooted in depth-oriented and experiential therapy. She blends evidence-based modalities like Internal Family Systems (IFS), Family Systems Therapy (FST), and Gestalt Therapy with Emotion-Image Therapy (EIT)—a powerful method that uses visual metaphors to access unconscious emotional patterns.

Clients working with Tatyana often describe feeling deeply seen, gently guided, and empowered to engage in courageous inner work. Her calm presence, intuitive insight, and creative lens help clients explore emotional layers that traditional talk therapy may overlook. She meets each person with attunement, cultural sensitivity, and a belief in their capacity to heal.

Whether through parts work, symbolic imagery, or emotionally focused dialogue, Tatyana creates a safe, non-judgmental space for clients to reconnect with themselves and rewrite old emotional narratives.

Who She Works With

Tatyana specializes in supporting:

• Adults (20+) experiencing emotional overwhelm, grief, or complex trauma
• Couples struggling with emotional disconnection, trust issues, or recurring conflict
• Professionals facing burnout, midlife transitions, or identity shifts
• Individuals who’ve tried cognitive or skills-based therapy and now want to explore deep emotional reasons for their  issues  

Her clients are ready to move beyond surface-level symptom relief and explore the roots of their distress. They want a therapist who brings structure, creativity, and deep presence to the healing process.
