Tanvi Dave (MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist)
I am a registered social worker who has 10 + years of experience in human services supporting community with my empathic nature and understanding of diverse social dynamics. As a Social worker with a strong foundation in social work principles and a passion for fostering healthy connections in supporting clients with finance, housing, abuse, concerns with mental health, care giver stress, advocacy/system navigation, bereavement, end of life planning,
family/relationship conflict, coping/adjustment, crisis intervention and referring to community resources.
I have received training and certification in motivational interviewing to empower individuals on their journey towards positive change. With a commitment to fostering self-discovery and personal growth, I harness the principles of Motivational Interviewing to support clients in exploring their motivations, resolving ambivalence, and making meaningful life-altering changes. My knowledge and experience in CBT enables me to assist clients in
recognizing and modifying negative thought patterns and behaviors. My skill of DBT with mindfulness approach equips me to work effectively with individuals who struggle with intense emotions or have difficulties regulating their feelings.

Julia Kovalsky (Social Worker, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist)
Hi and welcome! I believe therapy can be beneficial for anyone and is an opportunity to talk about and explore ways to improve quality of life. While traditionally thought of as a way to help work through a problem or mental health issue, it doesn't have to be engaged in only when facing a particular challenge. Therapy can extend beyond resolving problems and achieving life satisfaction and can be about thriving and getting the most out of life. My goal is to support you to be the version of yourself you would like to be and to create the same for your life.
I'm passionate about connection, knowledge, meaning, balance, and authenticity. I provide a safe, non-judgmental, and collaborative space for us to work in. My approach is relaxed, informal, individualized and combines ideas and techniques from different therapeutic schools of thought depending on your unique needs. I work with individuals aged 16+ and look forward to guiding you to living life as you envision it, supporting mental health issues like anxiety, stress/burnout, and depression as well as cultural challenges, identity, life transitions, peer/family/romantic relationships, and coping with situations at home/school/work.
