Questions & answers
Frequently asked questions
What happens at the first session?
The first session is about getting to know each other. You share what is on your mind and what you would like to change, and I ask clarifying questions. You are welcome to ask about my approach and how we will work. At the end, we decide together where to start and how to move forward.
How long is a session?
An individual session lasts 50-60 min, a couples session 80-90 min.
How many sessions will I need?
It depends on what you come with. Sometimes a few sessions are enough to work through a specific situation, while deeper topics take longer. After the first session we will outline a plan together, and you can always revisit it.
Is it confidential?
Yes. Everything said in a session stays between us. I keep my notes private and follow the psychologist's code of ethics. I may discuss complex cases in supervision - only anonymously, without any details that could identify you. That is also why you won't find client testimonials on this site.
When can I book a session?
Weekdays from 10:00 to 17:00, weekends at 10:00 or 11:00. Other times can be arranged separately.
How do I pay?
Payment is made by bank transfer to my sole-proprietor account; I'll send the details when you book. Please pay no later than 24 hours before the session, otherwise the booking is cancelled.
How do I cancel or reschedule?
Message me at least 24 hours in advance and we'll move the session. Later cancellations are charged, unless circumstances made earlier notice impossible. If I cancel without notice, your next session is free.
What is the difference between a psychologist, a psychiatrist and a psychotherapist?
A psychologist has a degree in psychology and helps you work through emotions, thoughts, relationships and life situations. A psychologist does not make medical diagnoses or prescribe medication. A psychiatrist is a medical doctor who assesses your condition medically and can prescribe medication if needed. A psychotherapist has completed long-term training in a specific psychotherapy method. If I see that you would benefit from seeing a psychiatrist, I will tell you openly.
What if I need help urgently?
Psychological consultations are not emergency care. If you or someone near you is in danger, call 112. Lifeline Ukraine, a 24/7 suicide prevention and mental health line: 7333 (free, anonymous). National Psychological Association line: 0 800 100 102. If you are outside Ukraine, call your local emergency number.
