Maryna Ross, LPC

Maryna Ross is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado. She draws on seven years of clinical work to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and major life changes. Her style is straightforward and respectful, and she aims to make the first step feel doable for someone who is worried or unsure.

In sessions she adapts the conversation and the plan to each person's needs. She uses practical, skills-based work to address symptoms like panic, low mood, and trouble with anger. She also focuses on relationship concerns, intimacy-related issues, and problems that come from family of origin or attachment wounds.

Maryna applies approaches such as cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. She also integrates acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify values and take manageable steps. Attachment-based perspectives inform her way of looking at patterns that repeat in relationships.

Her experience includes helping people cope with compassion fatigue, addictions, career stress, and the fallout from separation or divorce. She is familiar with work around body image, codependency, commitment worries, and challenges tied to alternative sex culture and kink.

Sessions are offered online through video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Maryna works collaboratively to set realistic goals and practical strategies that fit each person's life and schedule.

Practical therapy approaches for online care

Maryna works with several evidence-informed methods that translate well to online sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and learning practical strategies to change them; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, called ACT, helps people get clearer about their values and take committed steps even when difficult feelings are present; it can be useful for life transitions and persistent emotional pain. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at repeating relationship patterns and early attachment wounds so people can shift how they relate and form closer connections.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before, then recommend techniques and adjust the plan as progress is made. This makes it easier to try methods that fit each person's situation.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer more flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face work and skill coaching, phone sessions can fit into a busy day or use less bandwidth, and messaging supports brief check-ins or ongoing reflection between appointments. These options help people fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while using the approaches that feel most helpful.
