Galina Storozhenko

Galina speaks English and Russian and focuses on creating a straightforward, compassionate space for people to talk about hard things. She helps with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and relationship struggles.

Galina also addresses problems such as panic attacks, social anxiety, mood disorders, isolation, and workplace stress. She supports people facing caregiver strain, chronic illness or pain, and questions about life purpose or midlife change.

Galina uses practical approaches drawn from several methods, including the Gottman Method for relationship patterns, cognitive behavioral therapy to shift unhelpful thoughts, acceptance and commitment therapy to clarify values, and dialectical behavior therapy skills for strong emotions. Sessions are collaborative and focused on skills that can be used outside the session.

Her style is warm and direct. She listens carefully, helps spot patterns, and practices techniques with clients so they feel usable in daily life.

The goal is clearer thinking, steadier moods, and stronger coping for whatever comes up. People who work with Galina often want a grounded, goal-oriented process that still honors their story.

She encourages small, realistic steps and supports clients as they try new ways of handling stress and relationships.
