Galina Zlotnikova
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT #83992
I specialize working with people who have experienced trauma, emotional or physical abuse, chronic illness or are caregivers to someone living with a chronic illness. Drawing from my own personal experiences with illness and trauma, I dedicated many years to studying mind-body therapies. My goal was to understand the root causes of illness and trauma and identify the most effective, easily implementable treatments—approaches that wouldn’t overwhelm or strain individuals who are already coping with compromised health. I work with a deep understanding that, for trauma survivors, symptoms often take the place of memories. In my practice, I strive to create a warm, welcoming space where every client is met with gentle curiosity and thoughtful attention. My goal is to understand you from your point of view and to help you to connect to and befriend parts of you that feel hurt, neglected, anxious or overwhelmed. Regardless of your past experiences or current challenges, my hope is that we can work together to build the resilience and self-compassion you need to live a meaningful, healthy, and fulfilling life.

Maureen Backman
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, MA, MS
I’m a therapist because I believe in the healing strength of being with: Being with our feelings, our present moment experience, and each other. So often, we walk through life feeling alone and disconnected. Therapy is a place for you to unfold and expand into a life that feels more authentic and spacious, a place for you to experience connection and transformation.
Clients who work with me often describe me as warm, thoughtful, and creative. In addition to what you might think of when hear the words “talk therapy,” I also incorporate art, movement, and mindfulness into our sessions. I view my clients and myself as co-collaborators in the therapy process, and work with you to create a space that feels supportive and safe. I take a non-pathologizing approach, honoring the strategies that got you to this moment, and supporting you as you unfold into your authentic self.
