Getting to know Alena Mironova

With a mutual goal of the empowerment and motivation in my clients, I use my knowledge of complex trauma recovery, self-esteem issues, and relational problems to work with children, teens, and adults. My experience includes working with ACS/foster care involved clients, survivors of domestic violence and other forms of abuse, as well as people looking to change very difficult patterns that keep them stuck in chaos and negativity. I would love to get to know you to see how I can fit into your journey of self-improvement.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My style is very direct but non-interrogational. I love challenging clients that love to be challenged. People want to feel heard and validated, which is always a good first step. But you want sustainable and meaningful change. Whatever problem you are looking to address, my role is to adapt to your needs as a person who stays open-minded and never assumes that "I know what you need". Most people come for therapy because they themselves are trying to answer that very question, and the "how" of getting there. I like to dig deep with clients, while keeping things loosely structured. Every conversation we have is meant to get you closer to your goal and build confidence along the way.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

First sessions are done to gather information, discuss expectations and create a draft of the goals we will work on together. A summary of your presenting problem, relevant history and any current insights are usually a part of the discussion.
