Do you feel stuck in emotional patterns that hinder your relationships, self-image, or life decisions? Hoping to gain clarity and feel more empowered in your life? Then, I may be the right therapist for you. I'm Myroslava, RP, and I work with adults with a wide range of challenges (in English and Ukrainian): anxiety, depression, attachment trauma, relational conflict, low self-esteem, and life transitions - and I'd be honoured to partner with you on your path to healing and self-discovery!

Background

I am an integrative therapist. Having worked in social services for over a decade and in private practice, I am passionate about helping people step out of their comfort zones and achieve meaningful change. To assist with my clients’ specific needs, I mainly draw from Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), as well as elements of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), parts work informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Dr. Janina Fisher’s Trauma-Informed Stabilization Treatment (TIST) model, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), mindfulness, and sensorimotor/body-based interventions.

Emotionally Focused Therapy

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is a humanistic and experiential approach, rooted in adult attachment theory. Bringing awareness to, understanding, expressing, and processing emotions aims to help clients gain insight into their patterns and experiences – beyond coping with surface-level issues and symptoms – into the creation of new inner experiences and secure relationships with self and others.
