My experience
In addition to my private practice I do voluntary counselling work at Kingston Women Centre (Surrey).
I worked as a counsellor for TASHA Foundation Charity in Brentford and Staines. I also worked for more than ten years with immigrants, refugees and expatriates coming from different countries, including Americans, Poles, Iranians, Indians and many others. I lived and worked in Russia, Sweden and England for many years.
Having been a political refugee from Sovjet Union myself in the 90ties, I can understand well the experience of people who feel different from the mainstream of society in their culture and religion.
I respect and appreciate individual differences in spirituality, life style and in many other ways..
My approach to counselling
I am a Person-Centred counsellor, which means that I am a skillful facilitator of my clients' growth towards better coping with their life.
I am a Member of British Association of Person-Centred Approach (BAPCA).
