    About

    Hello! My name is Anastasia, and I am a psychotherapist at the Chaika Clinic Tbilisi. In my practice, I blend my scientific background with contemporary knowledge in the fields of neurobiology and neuropsychology

    I work within cognitive-behavioral approaches (CBT, DBT, ACT) and adhere to principles of ethics, deontology, and evidence-based medicine

    My specialization covers a wide range of areas where I can help you cope with:

    -  Mood swings, feelings of sadness, apathy, indifference, and the search for meaning in everyday life
    -  Anxiety, fears, panic attacks, and intrusive thoughts and/or actions
    -  Somatic anxiety (pain syndrome), health-related anxiety
    -  Challenges with irritability, aggression, and self-harm
    -  Sleep disturbances, appetite changes
    -  Overcoming negative emotions such as resentment, guilt, shame, jealousy, and envy
    -  Emotional experiences related to loss of a loved one, separation from a partner, or divorce
    -  Self-esteem issues, burnout, procrastination, and planning difficulties
    -  Assistance with adaptation to a new ethnocultural environment and new life circumstances

    During our sessions, I strive to create a safe, open, non-judgmental, and egalitarian environment where you can feel supported, understood, and accepted

    My practical experience includes individually tailored plans to overcome challenges and achieve specific goals, psychoeducation, and teaching skills necessary for living a fulfilling life
