About me

I offer a warm, non-judgmental space for adults who want to understand themselves more deeply. My work combines clinical psychology with philosophical reflection, which allows us to explore not only symptoms, but also questions of meaning, identity and values. My background includes years of working with people going through life transitions, relationship difficulties, anxiety and existential concerns. I believe that true healing happens when we feel truly seen and accepted exactly as we are. I work with both English-speaking and Russian-speaking clients worldwide via online sessions. Whether you are looking for long-term therapy or focused short-term support, I am here to walk alongside you with honesty and care.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
ACT: Acceptance and Commitment TherapyRecommended for those who want to stop fighting negative thoughts and learn how to live with more acceptance and focus on what really matters in life.
CBT: Cognitive behavioral therapyRecommended for those looking for practical support and accountability to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors.
My therapeutic style is warm, calm and collaborative. I work with each client at their own pace, creating a safe space where you can be completely yourself without fear of judgment. I primarily draw from two evidence-based approaches: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on accepting difficult emotions while moving toward a meaningful life based on your personal values. Together we will work on both understanding the roots of your struggles and building practical tools for real change. My goal is not just to reduce symptoms, but to help you live a more authentic and fulfilling life.
