About me

My name is Tanya. I am 41 years old and a mother of a wonderful young boy. I live in Kyiv. I have been working in the Gestalt approach since 2021. If you are looking for a grounded, stable, and safe psychotherapist, you are welcome to work with me. I am not afraid to explore the deeper layers of your personality, and with me you can share and be accompanied in your loneliness. I understand the challenges of motherhood and can support you through life-stage crises — your own and those of your loved ones. I help clients better understand themselves, their desires, and their needs. I also work with codependent relationships, anxiety disorders, and depressive states — we will face them together. I have personal experience of long-term forced relocation to another country and the difficult decision to return home, so I can be a reliable support for those going through similar experiences. I am also open to working with military service members and their families.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
Gestalt therapyRecommended for those who want to focus on the present and take responsibility for their feelings and actions to promote personal growth.
Psychotherapy Recommended for those who want to work through emotional or mental health challenges by talking with a trained psychotherapist.
The main focus of the Gestalt approach is your feelings as they arise in contact with me, here and now. In our work, you will be able to become aware of and accept different feelings, even difficult ones, recognize and distinguish your desires and needs. This gives rise to a new experience — the experience of perceiving yourself as whole and aware. I also specialize in life-stage crises and trauma. I can be present with you and support you through these difficult moments in your life or in the lives of your loved ones. I work extensively with codependent relationships — romantic as well as parent-child dynamics. I have personal experience of leaving such destructive relationships and can be a reliable support for you through these experiences. With me, you can be yourself, and I will help you notice what you may not yet see. This will deepen and expand your understanding of yourself. The first session is always exciting. I encourage my clients to listen to themselves and move at their own pace. Taking time to get acquainted, my questions and curiosity about you can provide support and reduce anxiety. We outline and discuss your request, if it is already defined. For effective work on your request, I recommend 10 sessions, with the possibility to continue and deepen our therapeutic relationship. Sessions take the form of a conversation. When appropriate, I may suggest a psychological experiment or test to gain greater awareness of how things work for you personally. Homework assignments are also possible for more thorough reflection. The recommended frequency of sessions is once a week.
