01About Tatyana
Tatyana Fertelmeyster helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, or major life changes. She works with adults who want practical support for healing after trauma or abuse, or for navigating separation and transitions. Tatyana brings a calm, straightforward presence and focuses on what each person needs right now.
With 15 years of professional experience, she blends therapeutic work with executive and transition coaching to support life changes and career shifts.
Background and approach
She treats concerns like attachment wounds, communication problems, guilt and shame, and the isolation that sometimes follows loss. Sessions also address questions about life purpose and building self-love. Tatyana holds an LCPC, which is the Illinois licensed clinical professional counselor credential.
That background informs how she structures sessions and partners with clients. She centers each meeting on the client’s goals and strengths rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. In therapy she helps people map small, practical steps they can try between meetings.
That might include communication practices, coping tools for anxiety, or ways to process grief at a manageable pace. She also offers coaching strategies for people making career or role changes. Tatyana speaks English and Russian.
She offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. To begin, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

Evidence-based approaches and online care
Many people start by learning practical techniques to manage worry and stress, followed by work on relationships and trauma processing. Cognitive-behavioral strategies focus on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve mood. These techniques are useful for everyday stress, panic, and persistent worry.For relationship and attachment concerns, therapy includes communication skills and exercises that help rebuild trust and connection. Coaching methods are used alongside therapeutic work when someone is navigating a job change or major life transition, helping set goals and plan concrete steps.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That means adjusting pace, combining coaching and therapy, and checking in about what feels most useful.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people work face-to-face from a distance. Phone meetings can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging support shorter check-ins or ongoing written reflection between sessions. These formats offer flexibility to fit therapy into busy lives and changing schedules.
