A little bit about me

More than seven years have passed since I moved to Canada from Russia.

The most challenging part of this journey was coping with my deep sense of loneliness.

In a foreign country, with its different mindset, values, and life, everything dear and close to me suddenly felt out of place.

I was losing one pillar after another. The familiar social circle where I once felt at home vanished, and a new one didn’t emerge.

Unexpectedly, I keenly felt that all my experience in the past was unnecessary. Simply “not suitable, not acknowledged.” And the crisis in my relationship with my beloved became the final straw. I can’t recall experiencing such internal and external turmoil in all aspects of my life.

It happened sporadically in the past, but never quite like this. All at once. Never before.

As I searched for something to lean on, I encountered fears, pain, negative self-thoughts. I had to not only witness this internal storm but also deal with it. There was nowhere to run. This desire to find wholeness and authenticity in my relationships, both with myself and with my beloved, led me on a transformative path of learning and exploration. I delved into practices such as tantra, breathwork, bodywork, meditations, systemic constellations, coaching, hypnotherapy, and counselling for couples. Each modality offered valuable insights and tools for navigating the complexities of human connection and personal growth. (more about my training here)

Slowly, gently, things started to work out, and life began to improve. I have certainly changed and continue to change. No longer with the thought “I am alone” and the feeling of being unnecessary and out of place. I found my own home.

What helped me then and continues to help me now is my initial intention. It gives me the strength to get up every time after another fall and let go of what’s unnecessary.

What was the purpose and reason for such a life-changing step? What I said NO to and what I said YES to? The price of my choice and the willingness to pay it.

The readiness and courage to make a leap from the old patterns, system of beliefs and values to the new one. Where there is more trust and respect for myself and others. And where my vulnerability becomes strength and ceases to frighten.

That’s why true intention is crucial at first. It’s like a golden arrow you shoot into your future right now.

And then there’s the opportunity to access your hidden or lost inner potential and unlock it. More resources become available and life becomes a co-creation and there’s more joy.

I am more and more available to my own life with an open heart,  speak my truth and allow my wisdom to be my inner Elder and my inner compass.

I am profoundly grateful for the steadfast support of my husband, whose unwavering love and encouragement have been my rock throughout this journey.

My heartfelt appreciation goes out to my teachers, past and present, whose wisdom and guidance have illuminated my path and empowered me to face every challenge.

To my dearest friends. Their presence in my life has been a source of endless strength and joy.

My personal journey has deeply influenced my approach to working with clients, where I support individuals in healing and deepening their relationships with themselves, their loved ones, and life itself.

Having experienced profound shifts in my own life, I understand the importance of shedding light on hidden loyalties and patterns that may be holding us back. Through our sessions, I help clients identify and navigate these underlying dynamics, allowing them to move forward with clarity and purpose.

Moreover, my journey has taught me the significance of restoring lost connections in times of isolation. I guide clients in rebuilding bridges and fostering genuine connections, helping them to rediscover the beauty of authentic relationships.

Additionally, my experience has shown me the transformative power of supporting movement toward wholeness in the face of loneliness. Together, we explore avenues for growth and self-discovery, nurturing a sense of completeness and fulfillment.

In essence, my personal journey fuels my passion for guiding others on their path toward healing, connection, and wholeness. It is an honor to walk alongside my clients as they embark on their own transformative journeys.
