Yuliya Viner, LISW

Professional Bio

Hello, my name is Yuliya Viner and I’m an Independent Clinical Social Worker licensed in the state of Ohio. I started my career in Russia, where I was a children’s psychologist before I moved to the United States in 2000. Since 2004, I’ve worked in the behavioral health field providing individual therapy to adults, older adults, teens, families, and couples.

My approach to therapy is mostly person centered, which means I seek to fully understand my client’s point of view, empathize with their particular situation, and offer solutions in an objective and non-judgemental manner. I am experienced in Mindfulness Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solutions Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Motivational Interviewing, and Emotional Freedom Therapy.These types of therapy are evidence based practices clinically proven to help in treating depression, anxiety, insomnia, grief, issues with interpersonal relationships, and a number of other issues affecting emotional and mental health.

As your therapist I promise to give you the tools to access your own wisdom, support you in figuring out ways to reach your goals, and collaborate with you on to make the difficult stuff easier to handle. I’ll work with you to improve your quality of life, relationships, mood, behaviors, self-esteem, and perception. You’ll become an expert in your own life, and be better prepared to weather life’s challenges as a result.

I believe that therapy is an incredible opportunity to change your life through self-awareness and self-exploration. I genuinely enjoy accompanying my clients on this journey, so please, come talk to me!

When I am not with clients I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, traveling around the globe, reading books, listening to music, swimming, and horseback riding.
