Let's get acquainted!
My name is Natalia and as a psychotherapist, I specialize in supporting people who find themselves in difficult, confusing, or frightening life situations — whether it’s a major turning point like divorce, relocation, or retirement, or such long-standing mental health issues as personality disorders or addictions.
I hold master’s degrees in physical culture and practical psychology, and later continued my studies at the University of Salzburg, completing both the basic and clinical training in Existential Analysis under Dr. Alfried Längle.
My practical experience includes the psychosocial work at the Maimonides Center in Vienna, where I supported elderly patients and contributed to research in geriatric psychotherapy. During this time, I also gained additional specialization in gerontopsychosocial counseling and earned certification as a gerontologist. This comprehensive training deepened my understanding of the complex relationship between aging, mental health, and existential issues, allowing me to provide specialized support for older adults navigating life's later stages.
Currently, I serve as an online therapist at Thrive, a UK-based mental well-being company, where I provide online mental health support to clients worldwide. I apply evidence-based techniques to make mental health care accessible and effective in the digital age.

My Philosophy
Existential Analysis is a therapeutic approach guiding individuals toward a deeper understanding of themselves and their place in the world. Rooted in exploring fundamental existential questions of choice, duty, freedom, and responsibility, EA encourages self-awareness and meaningful living.
In Hic et Nunc Therapy, the focus is on integrating EA’s principles into daily life, empowering you to take responsibility and live fully and freely up to your liking.
The approach invites you to explore the depth of human experience and confront life’s uncertainties with courage, fostering a deeper understanding of how to build a life where you actively shape your future through the choices you make today. By beginning this journey right here and now, you open the door authenticity and life fulfillment.
