No harm - taking care of the client's wellbeing

Protection – using safe, proven methods

I follow the Western psychotherapeutic model, which means that I work with my own psychotherapist, undergo regular supervision individually and in a supervision group, constantly improve my professional level attending training programs delivered by both Russian and foreign specialists.
