Since the age of 17, I have been deeply passionate about ancient philosophy, a fascination that led me to study philosophy for six years at the university in Kyiv.
During the final year of my master's studies, I had the opportunity to study in Berlin through the Erasmus+ program.
While in Germany, I discovered the field of philosophical counseling and began exploring the literature on this subject. This interest drove me to pursue training in psychological counseling to gain more practical experience.
During my training, I started working with my first clients. Currently, I am a student at a medical university, specializing in Clinical Psychology, as I seek to deepen my therapeutic expertise.
In addition to my studies, I am actively developing my private practice and striving to popularize philosophical counseling in Ukraine through social media and public events.
