Counselor, coach & mentor

As a professional counselor and coach, I help my clients unlock vitality and joy, find harmony in relationship with themselves and people around, and acquire the ability to achieve their goals in a calm state.

Over the course of a 25-year career in business, I progressed from a marketing manager in the local market to a global senior director of digital innovations at the headquarters of a Swedish company.

I led large-scale projects, managed international teams, and fostered productive interactions with employees, colleagues, management, and contractors from many countries—from Europe and the CIS to Southeast Asia, India, China, Turkey, Africa, and South America.

Nine years ago, I delved into the study of psychology, particularly neuro-linguistic programming (NLP). Over these years, I have successfully used NLP methods to overcome mental barriers and unlock potential both in my professional activities and personal life. With experience in personal therapy and coaching, I have developed psychological resilience and a deep understanding of client issues.

Hi,

I am Alyona

In counseling I work using an integrative approach, employing cutting-edge psycho-technologies from Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) based on Dr. Richard Bandler’s teaching, Relive-Therapy method developed by Professor E. А. Polyakov, and Integral Neuro-Programming (Eastern version of NLP) developed by Professor S. V. Kovalev.

In business coaching, I rely on crystallized methods and executive coaching programs by Kjell Cronberg, a prominent Swedish executive coach trusted by CEOs, top managers, and business owners.

I believe that the true value of psychological counseling and coaching extends beyond the insights gained in sessions to the essential integration of these discoveries into daily life. We embark on the journey of your transformation together. Post-session, you will be equipped with assignments and a ‘toolbox' of strategies designed to keep you aligned with your goals, propel you forward in life, and empower you to overcome any obstacles that arise on your path. Ultimately, the final outcome rests in your hands.

My approach

My methods

Psychological Counseling

As a counselor, I assist you in resolving personal, professional, and interpersonal issues. My objective is to teach you how to overcome life’s difficulties and to develop skills for successful interactions with those around you, enhancing the quality of your life. In the process of our cooperation, I support you by creating conditions for conscious choice and responsible decision-making. Our interaction is based on the principles of client-centered therapy, which recognizes the value and respect for the individual, their ability to self-determine, and their responsibility for their own life. I help you not just to cope with current issues, but also to learn how to build strong interpersonal relationships and effectively deal with stress, fostering your personal growth.

Neurolinguistic Programming

As an NLP practitioner, I use neurolinguistic programming to help you change your perception of the world and improve your communication skills. NLP enables a deeper understanding of how your thoughts, speech, and behavior are interconnected, and how these aspects affect your state. The goal of NLP is to teach you techniques that will help you effectively manage your emotions, overcome internal barriers, and achieve personal and professional goals.
In my practice, I aim to create a supportive environment where you can safely explore and modify your attitudes and behavior. Using various NLP techniques, I assist you in developing self-awareness and self-regulation, enabling you to respond more effectively to different life situations. As a result of our sessions, you will gain a better understanding of yourself and others, improve your relationships, and enhance the quality of your life.

Integral Neuro-programming

In my work, I also use integral neuro-programming, a method developed by Professor S.V. Kovalev. This approach combines techniques from various fields of psychology and neuroscience for deep work at all levels of human existence: from everyday adaptation to profound existential issues. My task is to help you adapt to changes, teach you socialization skills, support you in understanding and changing your life, and provide support during transitions. Integral neurolinguistic programming is effective in dealing with psychosomatic problems, adaptation difficulties, and in the pursuit of personal growth.
The methodology is based on four levels, each corresponding to different life needs and stages of human development: instrumental, intentional, meaningful, and transcendent. I work with you to not only solve immediate problems but also to achieve long-term changes in your life, based on a deep understanding of yourself and your capabilities.

Relive Therapy

As a counselor, I also employ relief therapy developed by Professor E. A. Polyakov to help you achieve profound changes at the level of your perception and behavior. This method offers a unique approach to solving problems not only on a superficial level but also on a conceptual level, which allows you to change your mental state and enhance personal resources.
Working with you, I strive not to merely react to your initial complaint, but to identify the root causes of problems, which are often hidden and require deeper analysis and understanding. Relief therapy allows you to approach your difficulties thoughtfully, transforming them from "problems" into tasks for growth and development.
My role is to help you find a balance between order and chaos in life. Together, we work to ensure you can live an everyday life effectively, overcome standard challenges without excessive stress, and quickly adapt to new conditions.
This method involves your active participation in the process, which includes not only discussions but also practical tasks for deep self-work. It is important that you can not only solve your problems during sessions but also independently find ways to resolve them in everyday life, relying on insights and new understandings gained during the session.

Coaching

As a coach, I help you unlock your potential and achieve your goals, whether in personal life or in the professional sphere.
In coaching, the key is to create a trusting and open atmosphere where you can discuss your problems and ambitions without fear. I use specialized techniques and methods that help you better understand yourself, your motives, and behavioral patterns. This allows us to develop effective strategies for overcoming obstacles and eliminating limiting beliefs.
One of the main tasks of a coach is to assist in setting realistic and achievable goals. Together, we analyze the current situation, identify areas for growth and development, and develop an action plan that will maximize your strengths and resources.
As a coach, I also serve as a catalyst for your personal and professional development. My task is to support you, provide feedback, and remind you of your responsibility for the decisions and actions taken. Through the coaching process, you learn to be more conscious, confident, and proactive, which inevitably leads to an improvement in the quality of life and the achievement of significant successes.
Ultimately, coaching is a journey to self-knowledge and self-realization, where I act as your ally and support, helping you find and realize your most important aspirations and dreams.
