Getting to know Antonina Kalyuskin

Ms. Antonina Kalyuskin is a skilled and compassionate psychotherapist who sees patients in person at Gaining Ground Mental Health Counseling, PLLC in New York, NY. She provides virtual consultations as well. Ms. Kalyuskin completed her master's degree in mental health counseling at Baruch College. She is a licensed therapist with a person-centered, trauma-informed approach grounded in social justice and cultural humility. Ms. Kalyuskin's practice is collaborative and adaptive; she tailors therapy to each patient's unique needs, goals, and identities, always with the intention of creating a warm, affirming, and nonjudgmental space where they can explore their experiences openly and honestly. She is fluent in English and Russian, which helps her see people from diverse linguistic backgrounds.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I draw from a range of clinical approaches, including Internal Family Systems (IFS), psychodynamic therapy, and evidence-based trauma work. I specialize in supporting adults dealing with ADHD, OCD, PTSD, anxiety, and life transitions. My style is laid-back and relational, and I like to keep sessions flexible so we can meet whatever you're carrying that day with depth and compassion. I’m committed to providing inclusive care to individuals of all backgrounds and identities, and I especially welcome clients from LGBTQ+, BIPOC, neurodivergent, and non-traditional communities. Outside of the therapy room, I’m a big animal lover, I have a dog of my own, and regularly foster rescue pups (expect the occasional bark in the background if we’re meeting virtually!). I also enjoy reading and spending time outside, whether that’s going for a hike, a bike ride, or just getting some fresh air and quiet.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just trying to make sense of things, I’m here to walk alongside you, not above you. Therapy with me is mostly unstructured, organic, and focused on what you need in the moment. My goal is to offer a space that’s both insightful and real, where growth can happen naturally, at your pace.
