About me

My Approach

We will work together to gain a better understanding of the issues that brought you to therapy, be it depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, work-related challenges, concerns around sexuality or identity, a loss of meaning or direction – or perhaps a wish to understand yourself better. Whether you have an idea of what you’d like to talk about, or may find it hard to define or put your feelings into words, I offer a safe and non-judgemental space where you can confidentially explore what’s going on.

Our aim would be to uncover new ways of thinking, to develop an insight into how your past experiences might have shaped the present you, what unconscious processes might be driving your behaviour, thoughts and emotions, and to open up possibilities for change.

I regard every individual as unique, and my approach will be tailored to suit your aims for therapy, and your particular situation.

Training, qualifications & experience

I work with individuals – young adults and adults, both in my role as a psychotherapist in the NHS, and privately. 

I practise online, and in person, out of inviting and confidential consulting rooms in Central London (King’s Cross.)

Trained at the University of Oxford, I am committed to continuous professional development. Psychodynamic thinking is at the core of my practice. 

I am a full clinical member of the UK Council for Psychotherapy, registered member of BACP, and a member of the Association for Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy in Public Sector.

I speak fluent Ukrainian and Russian; and have research interests in the technologically mediated therapy.

Member organisations

school Registered / Accredited

Registered / Accredited

Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.

UKCP
UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP)

The UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) is a leading professional body for the education, training and regulation of psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. Its register is accredited by the government's Professional Standards Authority.

As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.

UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred).

Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).

Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision.

Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training.

All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
