Helping with handling difficult emotions, obsessive thoughts, consequences of trauma and psychosomatic symptoms
Clinical psychologist, schema therapist
My goal is always your goal
Sometimes, clients say that they have become "more wholesome" and "seem to have found missing parts of themselves which they were able to accept"
Therapy may help if:
You feel worriedness & anxiety
You feel weariness, fatigue and frustration
You want to change something in your life
You experience tension, stress, phobias, and obsessive thoughts
You feel tired, do not have enough motivation to deal with simple things, do not want to do anything, and feel unhappy
You do not know who you are and where to go further in life. You feel that you have unfulfilled goals and dreams
Mindfulness
Understanding the causes
Self-regulation techniques
We will discover together what exactly (thoughts, feelings, sensations, events) brings you closer to the life you'd like to have and what takes it away from you
You will be able to recognize different parts of your life situation, understand their connections and origins, find solutions, or decide that there are no "good" decisions
You will acquire scientifically-based psychological instruments that may help you handle your emotions, sort out your thoughts, and adapt your behavior to different situations

Meeting Format
I recommend weekly sessions in the beginning of the therapy process. The interval may be extended up to once every other week if necessary.
At the final stages of therapy, the regularity is discussed individually (often we go into "on demand" mode).
Meetings may be held twice a week in crisis occasions.

Sometimes, I have to refuse a consultation. Usual causes for this are:
▸ psychosis
▸ high risk of suicide
▸a refusal to take medications prescribed by a psychiatrist; a refusal to start or continue group behavioral therapy (in case of a low or moderate risk of suicide or and self-harming behavior)
I provide therapy for adult clients (over 18 y.o.)

FAQs
Trust between me and the client is one of the most important results of our mutual work. Our relationships, feelings, thoughts that arise during sessions serve as main tools.
Contact itself is also important because it is often difficult for clients to tell that his or her mental state is getting worse. Or to share how things really are in life - in thoughts, feelings, circumstances. And without that, it's pretty hard to change anything. Therefore, it is very important to feel that there is an opportunity to speak about everything as it is.
The skill to understand and manage the client's own mental state is the final result of the work that I strive for together with the client.

The first few sessions are all about gathering information about what is happening to the client.
The purpose of the first 2-3 meetings is to form a joint idea of the situation in which the client finds him/herself, and to build a model (conceptualization) of what is happening to the client at the moment.
Then we take some time to explore what past events are influencing the client's current mental conditions and reactions. We will find out and work on the dysfunctional beliefs about oneself, people and the world around us. And then we will progressively work together to let the client find out a wider repertoire of reactions to various events.

I try to use various methods during the therapy process. If necessary, I will offer tools from different therapeutic schools that for example could contribute to the "cure" of trauma or teach a behavioral skill.
If the client's case requires the intervention of the other specialists (for example psychiatrists or group-therapy psychologists, family psychologists), I can recommend proven professionals, providing a comprehensive approach to the problem.
