Why This Work Works

This isn’t mindset coaching or surface-level advice. It’s a blend of evidence-based psychotherapy and coaching that rewires how your inner system responds to life.

By the end, you won’t just feel better — you’ll know how to keep yourself balanced, motivated, and emotionally steady long-term.

    • You’ve achieved a lot — yet still feel stuck, anxious, or disconnected from your motivation.

    • You tend to overthink, overwork, or put others’ needs first — and can’t fully switch off.

    • You’ve tried therapy, self-help, or even changing jobs, but the same patterns keep repeating.

    • You crave calm confidence — not another round of “fixing yourself.”

    • A clear understanding of why stress or burnout keep returning.

    • Emotional steadiness and focus that hold under pressure.

    • The ability to set boundaries without guilt and communicate with confidence.

    • Sustainable motivation — a pace that feels human, not heroic.

    • A sense of direction and inner freedom that doesn’t depend on external success.

  • What we do during our sessions won’t be a black box — you’ll understand why each tool works and learn to use these frameworks yourself, so growth continues even after we finish working together.

    The approach I use is based on Metacognitive Programming (MCP) — a unique methodology developed by Mikhail Saidov that blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), ICF coaching principles, and more.

What people like you say

  • “I’ve been in therapy for the past 2 years, on and off. And it’s the dissonance between my past and current experience that keeps surprising me. It feels so strange to actually feel the impact of our sessions—it almost feels like it’s not supposed to work that way. ”

    Anna, Senior Product Manager

  • "It was a mix of psychotherapy and coaching — the best of both worlds. Thanks to the techniques you taught me, I was able to stay grounded when a major stressor hit my life."

    Emily, Consultant

  • “I am BUZZING! A new opportunity just landed because I took that next step!”

    Kate, Marketing Manager

  • “Conversations have become easier, meetings are shorter and much less tense, and I often end them by saying, “I’ll be waiting for updates on all the points we discussed.”

    Anna, Senior Product Manager

  • "Our session was impactful in ways I am still processing. You pushed me out of my comfort zone by encouraging to do something I always wished. This is such an important part of my journey towards showing up as my authentic self"

    Kate, Marketing Manager

  • "I catch my thoughts as if from the outside, and I have a go-to answer or practice that helps me calm down or figure out what to do next. Thank you so much for that!"

    Anna, Senior Product Manager

  • "For the first time ever I could actually map all of my inner parts and understand the logic in my behavior."

    Elena, Operations Manager

  • "I was burned out for 2 years. But during past 3 weeks, I finally felt where I am supposed to be. I am back working on strategic, holistic projects and genuinely feeling that I am adding value"

    Elena, Operations Manager

  • "We did a lot of work with my inner pessimist and critic. It helped me stay on track with our plan and ease the pressure on myself. I honestly didn't expect to find such an amazing offer that fast."

    Drew, UX/Product Designer
