Svetlana Burak
I’m a licensed therapist with 13 years of diverse clinical experience helping you navigate your life’s challenges with greater ease, self-awareness, and meaning.
I specialize in working with women experiencing hormonal shifts, whether due to perimenopause or menopause. I also work with individuals navigating relationship challenges, particularly in polyamorous relationship structures. Whether you’re facing stress, identity shifts, relationship struggles, or personal growth obstacles, I offer a safe, non-judgmental space to explore and heal.
I believe therapy is more than just problem-solving—it’s about empowerment, self-discovery, and growth. I draw from several evidence-based modalities to provide tailored support, including:
-Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): Helping you develop psychological flexibility, embrace emotions, and take meaningful action aligned with your values.
-Imago Dialogue: A powerful approach to improving communication, deepening intimacy, and resolving relationship conflicts.
-Certified Sex Therapy Informed Professional: Providing knowledgeable and affirming support for individuals navigating intimacy, sexual concerns, and relationship dynamics.
With a background as an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach, I take a holistic approach to therapy—recognizing the deep connection between mental health, physical well-being, and emotional resilience. True healing goes beyond just addressing thoughts and emotions; it involves nurturing the body, understanding how food and lifestyle impact mood and energy, and aligning all aspects of your life to support your overall well-being.
