Ms Boryana Angelova
Registered Psychotherapist
“I am a psychotherapist, practicing in Sofia. I offer individual psychological counseling and therapy for adults, conduct seminars for self-knowledge, a psychodrama therapist and trainer in the business. As a psychodrama therapist, I offer personal and group therapy. Both in-person and online.”
About Me
I help adults in Sofia explore their inner world and relationships through psychodrama. This active approach allows you to enact real-life situations, gaining new perspectives and understanding. I create a safe space for self-discovery in individual or group sessions, offered both in-person and online. My approach suits those seeking practical tools to navigate life’s challenges and deepen self-knowledge.
Approach
Using action methods, I guide you to stage troubling moments and test different responses so new insights land in your body as well as your mind. Sessions in Sofia or via secure video, in Bulgarian or English, move between short role-based experiments, reflective conversation and practical homework that supports change between meetings. I pay attention to pacing and the small shifts that reduce anxiety, strengthen boundaries and improve relationships. People looking for hands-on, experiential work tend to find this approach useful.
