I am a psychologist and a person-centered psychotherapist, working with individuals, couples, families and groups for more than 20 years. I also offer therapy for kids and adolescents. I am originally from Dnipro, Ukraine, but due to the aggressive Russian full-scale war in my country, I was forced to leave Ukraine and move to Germany in 2022. At the moment I share my life in two countries.
I qualified both in client-centered psychotherapy and children and youth psychotherapy, along with this I opened a private practice which I still run. After years of work I felt keen to share my professional experience and got qualified as a PCA trainer and supervisor at the UUAP (Ukrainian Umbrella Association of Psychotherapists) where I teach practical and theoretical skills to those who decided to dedicate themselves to this profession.
In 2022, the year of the full-scale invasion in my country, I have decided to join the WAPCEPC Board to contribute to the development of the Association and the PCA approach throughout the World, including disadvantaged communities. In the current Board I am a Treasurer, also I provide a liaison between the Board and the PCEP Journal editorial, as well as a liaison between the Board and the PCE26 Conference organizational committee. I would love to carry on the same way and to work on the development of the Association, so that it grows holding its rightful place among other international psychotherapy communities.
