“I sensed right away that Olga was a great fit as a therapist. She is warm, caring, inclusive, and also knows how to push back in the right way when I need it. It’s obvious she cares deeply about her patients and is committed to helping them feel heard and understood, without judgment. It can be daunting to find a new therapist, but Olga made it feel so natural and easy. What a gift! Highly recommend. ”

Getting to know Olga Desyatnik
**PLEASE NOTE: I AM AN OUT-OF-NETWORK PROVIDER AND I DO NOT PRESCRIBE MEDICATION OR PROVIDE PRESCRIPTION REFILLS.**
Welcome! Nowadays, it feels like everyone is stuck in survival mode, just trying to get through the day. But you remember a time when you felt peace, joy, contentment... Whether it's your job, your relationship, your family, or the state of the world in general, you're tired of repeating the same negative cycles. You want to find the root cause of what’s holding you back and start living the life you crave.
I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. While building from a relational foundation, I bring in different treatment modalities that are most relevant to you, your identified problem, and your personality - this is how we create profound and lasting results.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I am also passionate about the mind-body connection, wherein sometimes the best place to start addressing trauma is in the body. I am trained in EMDR and often weave in somatics, parts work, and polyvagal theory, for a multi-pronged approach. Ultimately, I offer a safe space where we can work at a pace that’s comfortable for you and your healing, allowing you to recover or discover your best self.
Part of what makes therapy effective is the client-clinician fit; besides psychodynamic psychotherapy, I also have a background in the film industry, theater, comedy, and hospitality - for those who feel like the regular 9-5 crowd doesn't understand them. I also welcome Third Culture Kids, immigrants, and LGBTQ+ and non-monogamous relationships.

Please note that I am an out-of-network provider with all insurances. I can provide you with a superbill to help you obtain reimbursement from your insurance company and am happy to walk you through the reimbursement process so that our sessions are covered by your insurance.
