I regularly take professional development courses, personal therapy and supervision. The basis of my work is cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) - I hold a 640-hour diploma in it. CBT is evidence-based and ranks first for effectiveness according to research by psychologists, physiologists and doctors.
That said, I use not only CBT tools - I take into account each client’s individuality, request and preferences. For example, I also work with trauma using a synthesis of psychoanalysis and schema therapy (I hold professional development diplomas in these areas).

Which countries I work with and how payment works
I hold consultations online via Yandex Telemost - nothing to download, you just follow a link like telemost.yandex.ru/j/... I work across time zones: my clients range from the USA to the Russian Far East. I am registered as self-employed, pay taxes on my income and send you a receipt after payment.
I am fluent in English - sessions can be held in English.
How many sessions you need
It depends on your request, your state, your readiness to engage and your wishes. Some choose longer work - I have clients who were in therapy for 2 and even 4 years, and during that time truly big changes happened in their lives. And in my practice there are many cases where after just 5-7 sessions clients felt better and finished, having got what they came for. In the end you choose the number of sessions based on your state - I can only recommend.
