Education
Hello! I am a certified specialist — clinical psychologist, psychotherapist, psychoanalyst of the French school of psychoanalysis.
Member of the Ukrainian Union of Psychotherapists.
I have been in psychology for over 23 years, including 18 years of experience in medicine, so I know how to solve any of your problems.
I regularly improve my qualifications. My psychoanalyst education meets the standards of the International Psychoanalytical Association (IPA).
I provide consultations in person and online.
I work with adults, families, and children from the age of 3.
I USE A FUNDAMENTALLY NEW, REVOLUTIONARY APPROACH IN PSYCHOANALYSIS — THE FRENCH SCHOOL OF J. LACAN.
- I do not use tranquilizers, antidepressants, anxiolytics.
No medications!
- NO hypnosis, gestalt therapy, CBT, or other methods that work on personality regression.
- You will immediately feel relief, and later easily achieve the desired results.
- I work at the deepest level of the psyche — the core of the personality, which allows me to analyze and eliminate the very CAUSE of your problem, not just alleviate the symptoms.
- You will receive stable results without relapses.
- I work specifically with the UNCONSCIOUS, unlike ordinary psychologists who work only with consciousness and cannot eliminate problems related to the unconscious.
- In my practice, I have encountered the most severe cases of mental disorders, so I am practically impossible to surprise.
- I help clients who have already given up and have not achieved results with other psychologists.
- I help reach a level of self-knowledge where a person begins to see their true desires and distinguish them from those imposed by the environment and parents.
- I use ONLY A SCIENTIFIC APPROACH, proven and the most effective methods.
What is the advantage of a psychoanalyst over a regular psychologist?
1. Psychoanalysis is the MOST EFFECTIVE DIRECTION IN PSYCHOLOGY today.
2. A psychologist CANNOT and DOES NOT HAVE THE RIGHT to treat patients; they can only help to understand a difficult life situation and make a decision.
3. A psychologist can work only with mentally healthy clients.
A psychoanalyst CAN and HAS THE RIGHT to TREAT using psychoanalytic therapy:
- psychoses
- neuroses
- depression
- panic attacks, etc.
4. A psychoanalyst undergoes additional expensive training to learn how to solve problems related to the unconscious mind and must have at least 10 years of practice.
