Professional experience
I work within the Gestalt approach, providing consultations via video calls. I practiced in-person in Kyiv from 2014 to 2019, but later transitioned to a nomadic lifestyle and now offer psychotherapy and consultations exclusively online (as well as in-person when temporarily in the same location; currently, that's Peru). I provide sessions in Russian, Ukrainian, and English.
