About Maryna

Maryna Ross is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado with seven years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, and major life changes. Her practice also addresses compassion fatigue, addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem, mood disorders, and career-related stress.

Maryna keeps sessions direct and practical. She listens for patterns that keep problems cycling and helps clients try different ways of responding. Conversations focus on clearer communication, coping skills for strong emotions, and small changes that fit daily life. She uses several evidence-informed methods to guide that work.

Her background includes time working both online and in private practice settings. Maryna blends approaches such as acceptance and commitment techniques, cognitive behavioral strategies, and attachment-based ideas to help people reduce reactivity and improve relationships. She also uses tools drawn from dialectical behavior therapy to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance.

Maryna supports people dealing with complex relationship dynamics, intimacy questions, and family-of-origin concerns. She addresses issues like abandonment fears, codependency, commitment struggles, and communication problems in straightforward, goal-focused sessions. Clients who find their anger or resentment getting in the way of work or relationships will find concrete skills to try.

Initial steps are practical: complete an intake questionnaire, set goals, and begin tracking what works. Sessions are framed around clear, achievable changes rather than long theoretical discussions. Maryna aims for steady progress through manageable skill building and honest conversation.

How sessions work

How her therapeutic approaches translate online

Maryna uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that reflect their values. That approach is useful for anger that comes from avoidance, rumination, or feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify thinking and behavior patterns that fuel reactivity and to test small behavior changes that reduce stress and improve communication.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their needs and goals. Sessions aim to be practical and collaborative, with measurable steps and homework when useful so clients can see what changes help between meetings.

The therapist's biography mentions online work and private practice but does not list exact session formats. Confirm the available session types before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can use work breaks or evenings. Maryna applies the same skill teaching and problem-solving online as she does in person, helping clients practice emotion regulation, communication strategies, and coping skills in everyday contexts.
