My approach

I am a grief and trauma counsellor with extensive experience in bereavement and loss services in North London. 

In my private practice, I work with people from diverse backgrounds, offering both online and in-person sessions in English and Russian. My clients include individuals and couples of all ages, social groups, religions, and cultural backgrounds.

I believe relationships are at the core of all human interaction, and therapy is no exception. We are relational beings who depend on each other to meet our emotional needs. In my sessions, I focus not only on the challenges my clients face today but also on their personal stories and experiences growing up.

I prioritize creating a safe and empowering environment where clients feel both physically and psychologically secure. This is essential to avoid re-traumatization and to build trust. When appropriate, I also offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) sessions to help clients process painful memories.
