Booking a first session with someone you have never met takes some courage. It is normal to wonder what will happen and what you will be asked, or to worry that you will not know where to start.
You choose a session type and a time on the booking page and pay securely by card. After payment you receive a confirmation and a calendar invitation with a private video link.
A good place to start is the introductory consultation. It is a short first meeting where we clarify what you are looking for and how we could work together.
You do not need to prepare anything. If you like, think beforehand about what has been weighing on you lately and what you would like to be different.
Sessions take place on Google Meet. At the agreed time you click the link in your invitation.
For the call you need:
On a computer the call opens in the browser, and there is nothing to install. On a phone, Google may ask you to open the free Google Meet app. Headphones help if other people are nearby.
If video calls are new to you, join a few minutes early to check your sound and camera.
The first conversation is about what brings you here. You decide what to share and how much, and you do not have to tell your whole story at once.
I will ask about what is happening now and what you would like to change. You can ask me anything about how I work.
The aim is that by the end we both have a clearer picture of what you want to work on.
You can speak English, Ukrainian or Russian, whichever feels most natural. Personal things are often easier to say in your first language.
Sessions are confidential, and I do not record them. The privacy policy explains how your personal details are handled.
There is no obligation to continue. If you want to go on, you book the next session yourself, whenever it suits you.
Some people come for a few conversations about one question, others prefer regular sessions over a longer time. We can talk about what would suit you.
My sessions are consultations. They are not medical or psychotherapeutic treatment, and I do not make diagnoses or prescribe medication.
This is not an emergency service. If you need urgent help, call your local emergency number: 144 in Switzerland, 112 in the EU.
Choose a session type and a time. Sessions are confidential and online, so you can join from anywhere.
