I'm Katya, an English-speaking integrative therapist based in Lisbon and Berlin, offering online therapy worldwide.
In my work, I am dedicated to facilitating healing, guiding positive change, and supporting you during your most vulnerable moments.
I see therapy as a collaborative process: a space where we slow things down, listen carefully, and begin to make sense of patterns that may feel confusing, repetitive, or overwhelming. Together, we explore both conscious experiences and less visible emotional dynamics, always at a pace that feels safe and respectful.
I place great importance on the therapeutic relationship itself. Feeling met with warmth, curiosity, and non-judgment is essential for meaningful work. From this foundation, difficult emotions can be explored, resilience can develop, and new ways of relating to yourself and to others can gradually emerge.
My background in working with people from different cultures and life paths has deeply influenced my sensitivity to identity, belonging, and transition. I welcome clients who are navigating change, emotional complexity, or a desire to understand themselves more deeply, - not to be “fixed,” but to be better understood. My goal is to encourage your self-discovery, facilitate personal growth, and gently support your natural healing process. So you become empowered rather than dependent on therapy.
I am certified in Integrative Adult Psychotherapy and Counselling, CBT, Gestalt Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS) Treatment, and NLP, and I continue to expand my knowledge in Positive Psychology, Mindfulness, and Psychodynamic perspectives.
Fluent in English and Russian, I am committed to celebrating and valuing the diverse backgrounds, cultures, and identities of my clients. I am a member of ACCH (UK) and hold worldwide insurance coverage.
