Do you feel...?

  • empty & alone?

  • do you get easily triggered & don't know why

  • are you consumed by anxiety? 

  • do you find it hard to build & keep healthy relationships?

Hi I'm Sylvia

I help people heal from trauma by addressing how its effects live on in the body, emotions, and parts of self.

Using a blend of somatic therapy, parts work, and nervous system regulation techniques, I support the cultivation of internal cooperation, ease, and self-trust.

My Approach is

Different

I integrate IFS and other parts work modalities, EMDR, and Somatic Therapy to help you create real, lasting change.

This approach fosters a mind-body connection, supports nervous system regulation, and processes trauma at a deeper level for profound healing and positive change.

An appreciation for people’s diverse identities & life experiences

I understand the unique challenges faced by immigrants as a first-generation immigrant myself from Russia. In my life, I've experienced different environments, values & ways of living. This ignited in me a deep curiosity & openness to people's unique lived experiences & an appreciation for our ability to adapt & thrive.
