Polina Hapco

In her work, she draws from a variety of evidence-based modalities, including Collaborative Problem-Solving Model, Person-Centered Approach, Emotional Focused Therapy, Relational Life Theory and Imago Couples Therapy.

Polina is committed to supporting her clients to reach their goals, she believes in acting from a place of love and dignity, and in practicing values that contribute to a better world. When life takes a turn for the worse, it can be hard to find hope and meaning. Feeling lonely, isolated, or unsupported can make it seem impossible to ever find relief. This is where therapy can be an invaluable tool. It can be the start of a journey, when you are no longer content with staying in a place of pain and despair. It can be a step into the unknown, when you don't know where to go, but you are willing to do something different.

Polina works with individuals, couples, and families to help them cope with relationship issues, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, occupational concerns, parenting differences, lack of intimacy, connection, and communication challenges. She also works with immigrants to assist them in adapting to their new environment, coping with isolation, and grieving the loss of a support system. Polina firmly believes in the power of love and dignity to help her clients find meaning and joy in their lives.

Polina works with individuals who are facing relationship problems, feeling depressed, anxious, or lonely; having work or occupational issues; or feeling low self-esteem.
