Irena Shwartzman, LMFT

Being a therapist is my pleasure, calling and passion. To be able to help people to be happier is a privilege. In my work with clients, I integrate empathy with encouragement.  I help my clients be heard, understood, and validated to become more proactive on their journey to a better and happier life.  She specializes in helping couples who are struggling with affairs, staying together for the kids, parenting styles not matching up, hearing in-laws, and lack of communication.

I work with young adults, adults and couples who may be struggling with depression, self-harm, anxiety, social anxiety, phobias, trauma, stress management, attachment struggles, and as well as with self-esteem and identity development. I’m also EMDR trained and practicing! I help couples who are dealing with infidelity, and communication issues. We can also speak in other languages in therapy as I know four of them: English, Hebrew, Russian and Ukrainian.

On a personal note I’ve been married for 25 years and have raised two beautiful humans. I love traveling because it satisfies my need to be an observer and an explorer. My superpower is my sense of humor!

Irena Speaks Four languages: English, Hebrew, Russian and Ukrainian.
