Counselor, Life Coach and Psychologist
I’m Oksana, a psychologist in private practice, currently training in Transactional Analysis. I help people explore their emotions, relationships, personal boundaries, and recurring life patterns. My approach is informed by psychological research and psychodynamic perspectives, and I work with regular supervision.
What draws me to psychology is the opportunity to understand people more deeply: how we experience emotions, what we need, and why certain reactions and relationship patterns seem to repeat. I am particularly interested in personal boundaries, our relationships with ourselves and others, and the ways earlier experiences shape our present lives.
In sessions, I aim to offer a calm, attentive space where we can explore your experience together. I do not see my role as deciding how you should live or supplying the “right” answers. Instead, I want to help you make sense of what is happening, recognise connections, and understand your feelings and needs more clearly. This can create more room for choices that feel like your own.
My approach is informed by psychological research and psychodynamic perspectives. I am interested both in what a person can consciously explain and in aspects of experience that may be harder to put into words. Alongside thoughts, I pay attention to emotions, bodily sensations, imagery, and associations. When useful, exploring these experiences—including through the idea of the “inner child”—can offer another way to understand familiar feelings and patterns.
Curiosity also means questioning the ideas I work with. I value psychological theory and research, and I try to connect them thoughtfully with what happens in practice. I participate in psychology conferences, contribute to research projects, and continue to develop my understanding through study, training, and supervision.
I am currently completing my final year of a Psychology degree at RANEPA and training in Transactional Analysis. Alongside my studies, I have provided more than 100 hours of individual counselling in private practice and attend supervision regularly.
I am at the beginning of my professional journey, and I believe it is important to be open about that. I bring a strong academic foundation, ongoing training, careful reflection on my work, and a commitment to understanding each person as an individual.
You do not need to know exactly what to say, have a clearly defined problem, or be a “perfect client.” You can come as you are, speak in your own words, and take time to find out what matters to you. We can explore it together, at a pace that feels manageable.
