I am a psychoanalytic psychotherapist working with adults in English and Russian. I am based in Da Lat, Vietnam, and work primarily online across time zones.
My background includes formal training in psychology and psychoanalytic psychotherapy, alongside academic study in languages and culture.

Clinical orientation and ongoing development
My work is grounded in contemporary psychoanalysis.
From 2023 to 2025 I participated in ongoing theoretical seminars and group supervision within the Pavia school tradition (contemporary post-Bionian field approaches), including groups led by Liana Fröhlich and a supervision group led by Elena Molinari.
I continue professional development through seminars, workshops, reading groups, and supervision.
