Hello and welcome. My name is Yuliia. I am a qualified psychodynamic counsellor. I am licensed in the UK with 5 years of professional work experience. I offer counselling sessions to adult individuals in English, Ukrainian and Russian.
Counselling is not just a job for me. I have a passion for supporting others in their uneasy times and helping them bring some meaning to their experiences. From my own personal experience, I know that at some point of our life we might need somebody 'to turn to' who can listen, understand, accept us as we are that can make a 'huge difference'. In my counselling sessions, I offer a safe, supportive, non-judgemental and accepting space to explore your current circumstances and past experiences bringing awareness of the underlying causes of your present issues, making sense of your struggles and finding ways to move forward in life.
I have a special professional interest in working with the following issues:
childhood trauma;
war trauma;
veterans' mental health challenges;
bereavement;
culture shock;
psychological issues related to migration.
I have also experience in helping clients with anxiety and depression, self esteem and confidence, loneliness, perfectionism, separation and divorce, attachment difficulties, family issues, career counselling.
I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that can assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

As i am coming towatds the end of my therapy, Yuliia has been amazing. From discussing many various issues to doing rewind therapy. This has had a massive upchange in mood for me which my family have noticed. If I ever felt like I was struggling again in future or knew anyone who was, betterhelp and yuliia would be the first port of call. Thank you very much for all the help. And I look forward to my last session next week

Yuliia is amazing. She really has had a massive impact since the beginning. She mainly asks questions, only makes statements when explaining to me some general psycology principles and never for a judgment that could steer me in one direction or another. She emanates professionality and creates a space where one can really reflect deeply. Absolutely suggested

Yuliia is the best therapist I've ever had - I tried 7 different ones until I found her and I am most grateful for every session

Yuliia really takes the time to get to know you and your background. She deep dives into your past and asks the right kind of questions to make you think. She has good pointers that make me think with more positives thoughts and self reflect. Although English is not my first language, and I sometimes have to struggle to find the right words, she really respects you and helps you with the advice you need.
