About me
Due to my personal experience I am particularly passionate about providing individual therapy to the people who are going through any significant life transitions, struggling with the adaptation, or can't make a change and want to get to a new level of quality life:
-People starting their lives in a new country, immigrants/ expats/ refugees/international students who are looking to overcome stress, apathy, overwhelming anxiety and loss of direction, to integrate into new culture and to develop new relationships.
-Young adults that are coping with cPTSD and navigating their independent living while healing from childhood traumas.
-Another specialization I'm excited about is supporting creative and artistic people to step into their full expression and looking to have emotional and financial fulfillment out of expressing their natural gifts to the world.
Through integrative therapy, I will support you in unraveling old patterns and healing past trauma, creating space for greater confidence, peace, love, and connection. Together, we’ll address the physical and emotional wounds that are holding you back, building resilience and deepening your ability to connect authentically with yourself and others.
I'm Ukrainian, with an experience living in Canada for 11 years and 3 years in Spain. Experienced in cultural adaptation, navigating international relationships and integration challenges when living in a new country and very different culture.

Approach
Treatment Approaches
Body therapyRecommended for those who want to connect their mind and body to release stress or trauma through physical sensations and movement.
Psychodynamic therapyRecommended for those looking to explore their emotions deeply and understand how past experiences shape their present life.
Systemic therapyRecommended for those who want to understand how their relationships and environments influence their behavior and emotions, particularly within family or organizational systems.
Gestalt Therapy
Gestalt therapy focuses on exploring the present moment and the dynamics between client and therapist. By bringing awareness to the feelings, thoughts, and reactions that arise during our work together, we can uncover hidden relational patterns and challenges. This approach is particularly effective for addressing patterns you may not be fully aware of but wish to transform.
Emotional Trauma Processing through the Body (RPT & EFT Tapping)
I use body-centered techniques like Rapid Personal Transformation (RPT) and EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) to help process trauma stored in the body. These methods allow you to recognize your habitual stress responses and release suppressed emotional energy in a safe, therapeutic environment. By addressing the root causes of trauma—whether from early life, prenatal experiences, or family inheritance—this approach helps heal emotional wounds and restore your original, resourceful state of safety, peace, trust, and self-acceptance. Over time, this fosters a more balanced nervous system and the ability to self-regulate from a place of safety, rather than defense.

Systemic Therapy
Systemic therapy helps you understand how your family dynamics have shaped who you are today. By exploring these patterns, we can uncover the root causes of current struggles, whether in your relationships with yourself or others. This approach helps resolve longstanding conflicts and heal emotional wounds, leading to healthier, more fulfilling relationships.
