How counselling could be helpful
"Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way." Leo Tolstoy
When you feel unhappy for a long period of time and it's affecting your day to day life it's time to talk about it. Friends and family could be great support but there may be many reasons why it might be not the best way to address difficult emotions and sensitive issues. Olga offers professional counselling as a safe and confidential collaboration to boost your self-awareness, and start a pathway to resolve your concerns. You will be an active participant in this process at every stage.
In the process of working with Olga as your counsellor you could gain a change in perspective or new insight. You could develop productive ways of thinking about situations and enhance your capacity to tolerate and regulate difficult feelings. As a result of those changes, you will be able to plan further actions, change unproductive behaviours, and make new decisions about your life.
Olga provides only online/telephone counselling through Zoom/phone at the moment.
About me
Olga is a qualified counsellor with years of experience. She trained in a variety of applied therapeutic frameworks and she is a Clinical member of Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia. Olga’s approach to counselling is based on a combination of professional training, evidence-based strategies and specialised interpersonal skills. You will be the active participant in your therapy and hopefully you will feel safe with Olga’s deeply empathic, non-judgemental style.
Before Olga heartily settled into work as a counsellor, she gained a Masters degree in electrical engineering and worked as an engineer for a while. This experience helped Olga to develop strong analytical and logical skills. Her interest in human relationships led her to undertake additional training, and she worked as a human resource manager for more than ten years. Through those years, Olga gained solid practice in conflict resolution and mediation. Olga supported dozens of people through a great variety of life situations. The last career change happened when Olga completed her second degree in counselling and combined all those skills to help others.
Olga’s rich life experience has equipped her with a unique combination of skills that gave her an enhanced ability to understand and support her clients. In her free time, Olga reads books, enjoys time with her family, and takes photos of the clouds above her head.
