Troika is truly a gem. She in the time I have started therapy has helped me navigate some big hurdles in my mental and emotional health journey. She is genuinely empathetic and understanding when dealing with sensitive issues. She gives amazing feedback and guidance, I truly am grateful for finding her after avoiding therapy the last 10 years.

My therapist is wonderful and has helped me so much. I'm still work in progress.
The only issue I have is with the online connection in my sessions. I took a few weeks off. I hope that those issues have been resolved. They hamper the quality of my sessions. Thanks!

Troika reaches beyond the emotions we feel or the situations that life brings us, and is able to intuitively guide a person through the process of excavating our innermost wounds, our past, and the relationship with our own selves. Her work helps a person see how all their puzzle pieces fit together to show the truest and most loving version of who we are. She embodies true compassion by helping others repair their capacity for and feeling of self love!
