About me
I hold a degree in psychology and continue my professional development in psychoanalytic theory. I regularly attend lectures and workshops by experienced psychoanalysts. I am in my own personal analysis and participate in regular professional supervision, which I see as an essential part of ethical professional practice.
I work with adults. Common areas I help with include anxiety, low self-esteem, difficulties in romantic and family relationships (including relationships with children), divorce, life transitions and crises, questions of identity, a sense of inner emptiness despite external success, and issues of self-realization, motherhood and fatherhood.
I offer online sessions for Russian-speaking clients worldwide. Sessions last 50 minutes. Therapy usually takes place on a regular basis, most often once or twice a week.
Я имею высшее психологическое образование, степень магистра психологии. Продолжаю профессиональное развитие в области психоаналитической теории. Регулярно посещаю лекции и мастер-классы опытных психоаналитиков. Нахожусь в личном анализе и регулярно прохожу индивидуальную супервизию, что считаю важной частью профессиональной и этической практики.
Я работаю со взрослыми. Среди тем, с которыми часто обращаются: тревога, низкая самооценка, сложности в романтических и семейных отношениях (включая отношения с детьми), развод, жизненные кризисы и переходные периоды, вопросы идентичности, ощущение внутренней пустоты при внешнем благополучии, вопросы самореализации, материнства и отцовства.
Я провожу онлайн-сессии для русскоязычных клиентов по всему миру. Сессия длится 50 минут. Терапия предполагает регулярные встречи, чаще всего один или два раза в неделю.

Approach
My therapeutic style is attentive, structured, and respectful. I maintain a consistent therapeutic setting that creates a safe and reliable space for deeper exploration.
In therapy we explore emotional reactions, inner conflicts, and recurring relationship patterns. Special attention is given to how experiences appear within the therapeutic relationship itself, since repeating emotional responses and behavioral patterns often become visible in the interaction.
I do not give ready-made advice or impose solutions. Instead, the work is focused on helping clients gradually understand their desires, motivations, and ways of responding, developing greater awareness and inner stability.
This process can help reduce anxiety, interrupt repeating conflict patterns, leave codependent or abusive relationships, establish healthier boundaries, and make decisions without constant guilt or inner pressure.
Therapy also supports strengthening self-esteem, restoring a sense of inner support, improving quality of life, and building close relationships without fear of loss or losing oneself in another person.
Psychoanalytic therapy is often a longer-term process aimed at lasting change rather than temporary relief.
