About me
Hello and welcome. My name is Yuliia. I am a qualified psychodynamic counsellor, registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. I am a trauma-informed therapist with professional interests in childhood trauma, war trauma, veterans' mental health challenges, culture shock, psychological issues related to migration, bereavement.
I started my practice in 2019 in England. Now, I work in private practice in Scotland. I offer counselling sessions online to adult individuals in English, Ukrainian and Russian.
Counselling is not just a job for me. I have a passion for supporting others in their uneasy times and helping them bring some meanings to their experiences. From my own personal experience, I know that at some point of our life we might need somebody 'to turn to' who can listen, understand, accept us as we are that can make a 'huge difference'. In my counselling sessions, I offer a safe, supportive, non-judgemental and accepting space to explore your current circumstances and past experiences bringing awareness of the underlying causes of your present issues, making sense of your struggles and finding ways to move forward in life.
In your initial session (approx. 30 minutes), we can discuss where you are at the moment (so, what is bringing you to counselling) and where you would like to be (or what you expect to gain from therapy) as well as what I can offer and how we might work together most productively.

Member organisations
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.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
