Client Testimonials
“I have been working with Anastasiya for over 2 years to process childhood trauma and anxiety which have resulted in unhelpful, repetitive thought patterns and low self esteem. I have found Anastasiya to be caring and empathetic, and as a result of this, and her highly knowledgeable and professional approach to talking and EMDR therapies I have made really good progress. What is very strong for me is the rapport I have with Anastasiya. I am certain that Anastasiya knows me well enough that I don't feel that I need to repeat things that are important to me. This was not always the case with previous therapists with whom I have worked. I like the fact that she concentrates on the positives and challenges me to confront my past and embrace who I really am in order to feel better about my life today. I would highly recommend Anastasiya to anyone. ”
“It has been life-changing to work with you! I really feel I have "graduated" from a course of learning that has transformed how I view my needs, plans, personality, identity, and emotional experiences. I found it hugely beneficial to be so validated and "un-gaslighted" as we worked through the background to the burnout, stress, and perfectionism that brought me to therapy in the first place. You've helped me pull apart some quite seriously toxic beliefs I had about myself and my family of origin, and you've also given me a lot of powerful images and useful tools that I will keep using to conceptualise and manage things like grief, guilt, self-blame, workaholism and so on. I think it helps that you seem to listen on multiple levels at once - you're hearing the tale at hand but also piecing together the underlying patterns and the emotional dynamics too. It was hard emotional work as you said it would be, but every session was packed with insight and it felt like progress every time. I feel able to steer clear of relapses now, especially after the review session, but if I do have one, it is great to know that I can contact you for some extra support…. ”
