Psychotherapy and Couples Counseling with Humor and Compassion

General Info
HOW DOES TALK THERAPY WORK? There is a writersā€™ saying: ā€œHow can I know what I think until I see what I say?ā€ This is called ā€œshaping at the point of utterance.ā€ The same principle applies to therapy. Discussing oneā€™s thoughts, feelings, conflicts and problems with another person is usually a great help. If that person is professionally trained, caring, smart, sensitive and objective, then talking with that person and exploring your difficulties and concerns can be of tremendous assistance. Airing your thinking aloud with a professional, detached, focused, and yet compassionate second ear, helps you to unpack your emotions, rethink chronic problems and anxieties, and live more consciously. It can help you gain clarity. Self-awareness and understanding are necessary first steps to turning such uncomfortable, unproductive, and injurious behaviors around. Real change can only follow self-understanding. And it is such real changes that finally allow you to free yourself from chronic problems and live your life with greater pleasure and freedom.

I only seek Irina when I am going through major life stages. She really helped calm me down and see the clarity of the situation so that I can make the right choice.
