I think that Yana is an excellent listener and has helped me better understand the problem I am facing in my life.

Yana and I have met for 2 sessions so far. I changed a few therapists in multiple states to finally match with Yana. My issues were insidious at this point and I had baggage from more than a decade ago. Yana effectively addressed my shame, trauma, PTSD from the first session itself. Now instead of feeling triggered and distracted
by my former triggers, I feel good about myself and the critical lessons I learned from the situation and Yana’s perspective.

I’ve only been working with Yana a couple months now, but she has helped me more than any other therapist I’ve had on better help. She has opened my eyes in a way I didn’t think possible and I look forward to our sessions each week!

Yana is a great listener and remembers details about my family. She also holds the right balance of listening and offering advice. She’s absolutely wonderful
