About Maryna

Maryna Ross is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with seven years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief and loss, and major life changes. She also supports those coping with compassion fatigue, addictions, trauma and abuse, and struggles around intimacy and self‑esteem.

Her approach begins with listening and asking practical questions about what is and isn’t working. Sessions focus on clear goals and small, manageable steps. She uses methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, attachment work, and client‑centered care to help people notice patterns and try different ways of responding.

Maryna pays attention to family of origin problems, attachment and abandonment wounds, and dynamics such as codependency and control issues. She also addresses concerns tied to body image, commitment fears, and alternative sexual cultures like kink and BDSM when those topics come up. Work often centers on setting boundaries, improving communication, and reducing reactivity.

People who come to her practice may be coping with career strain, caregiver stress, divorce or separation, or the emotional fallout from disasters. Sessions blend short-term symptom tools with attention to relationship patterns that keep problems repeating. Progress is measured in specific changes people can name in daily life.

To begin, the process asks for a short intake and a first session to map priorities and pick practical skills to try between meetings.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is about noticing hard thoughts and feelings and choosing actions that align with personal values. It helps with anxiety, grief, and getting unstuck when people put others first. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and changing patterns like people‑pleasing.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Maryna will help clients and the therapist figure out which methods fit best. That decision is collaborative and can change as goals shift or new issues arise.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, shorten check‑ins when needed, or avoid travel time. It also allows the practical use of worksheets, in‑session skills practice, and between‑session tasks that support change.
