My approach to therapy and supervision is highly collaborative and relational. I emphasize real contact in the here-and-now, paying close attention to the context and the stories that have brought us to this point. By fostering a genuine connection, I aim to create a supportive and transformative space for both clients and supervisees. Originally from Ukraine, I moved to the UK in 2015, a decision that has profoundly influenced my life and work. Relocating to a new country opened my eyes to different frames of reference, and I began to pay close attention to cultural diversity and context. Understanding these differences has enriched my practice, allowing me to connect with clients from various backgrounds and appreciate the unique contexts of their lives. The war in Ukraine had a significant impact on me, both personally and professionally. This shifted my theoretical paradigm towards existentialism and meaning-making. I became more focused on supporting those in unfortunate circumstances, helping them find meaning and resilience amidst chaos.
