Sasha has over 8 years of experience working with children, adults, families and couples with a wide range of concerns, such as behavioral challenges, couples/family conflict, anxiety, depression, complex trauma, parenting concerns, and post-partum difficulties.

Sasha specializes in working with couples and is a Gottman trained therapist. She has a passion for working with clients who are struggling with relationships, new moms, parents seeking guidance/parent training, and clients suffering from adjustment disorders and life transitions. 

In sessions, Sasha is encouraging, practical, and straight-forward, focusing on solutions that help clients get their life back on track. She uses a collaborative approach to therapy and helps clients through the use of evidence-based interventions. Although Sasha tailors her approach to fit the unique needs of each client, her primary theoretical orientations are cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT),  solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT), and Gottman Method Therapy. 

In addition to working with children and teens in her private practice, Sasha also conducts school observations and provides behavior modification therapy in the daycare/school setting. She has experience working in the school setting as part of the Special Education Program (SPED) where she provided counseling to children in grades K-12.
