Professional experience
Over 10 years of experience in in-person and online therapy since 2013. I specialize in helping clients navigate challenges such as anxiety, irritability, depression, fears, and psychosomatic symptoms (sleep disturbances, appetite issues, chronic illnesses). I also support individuals through adjustment difficulties (emigration, life changes), existential crises (feeling lost or lacking purpose), procrastination, and relationship crises (divorce, loss of a loved one, building new healthy relationships). Additionally, I work on self-acceptance, self-love, and improving self-esteem, including issues related to weight and body image. When working with grief and trauma, I approach each client’s pain with deep professional sensitivity. Languages: Ukrainian, Russian.
Areas of focus
specialization, area of professional interest
I work exclusively online (with clients in the USA, Georgia, and other countries). I help people adjust to new living situations, overcome pain, poor well-being, dissatisfaction with life or relationships. I practice Gestalt therapy, guiding clients through their changes gently, softly, and at their own pace—exactly as they're ready. My experience includes working with anxiety, irritability, depressive states, fears, psychosomatic disorders (sleep disturbances, appetite issues, chronic illnesses), adjustment crises (emigration, life changes), existential crises («I don’t know what I want» or loss of life’s meaning), procrastination, relationship crises (painful breakups, loss of a loved one, forming new comfortable relationships), as well as self-esteem issues, self-love, stabilizing a comfortable weight, and appearance. When working with grief or trauma, I prioritize the client’s individual need for special support. Sessions available in Ukrainian and Russian.
