Work with me

Not ready-made advice, but your own path

You moved, and life seems to have been put on pause. You can start it again, and it doesn’t have to be one big step right away. There are different paths here, light ones and deep ones. Each of them helps you see more than you see now and shift your attention from what is missing to what you can already do. That is how your life begins to change.

Who I am and why I understand you

Hello! My name is Iryna

I am a transformational coach and neurocoach. I live in Switzerland and know from my own experience what it is like — starting life over in a foreign country.

That is why you are always at the centre of our work. Your life, your strength and your wellbeing.

We go deeper than advice

We won’t stop at a plan on paper. We will gently go down to where your habitual reactions, fears and old rules live, the ones that no longer work here. When something changes inside you, solutions on the outside start to appear by themselves.

You stop blaming yourself

I understand how your brain reacts to change and an unfamiliar environment. Why in a new country your energy runs out so fast and a simple letter from an authority feels like a mountain. This is not about weakness. This understanding alone lifts a lot of needless guilt off your shoulders.

Your attention comes back to you

I work with your thinking and the focus of your attention. Where your attention goes, your energy goes too. Together we will find the thoughts that go round in circles and learn to shift your gaze from “why isn’t it working for me” to “what can I do for myself today”. Then your mind grows quieter, and there is room for your own decisions.

I don’t rush you or pull you by the hand. I walk beside you — at your pace and for your sake.Iryna
What people come to me with

Do you recognise yourself in one of these phrases?

This is not a diagnosis or a label. It is the point where the conversation about you begins. Click your phrase and you will see how we can work with it.

Recognised yourself? Then it’s time to make time for yourself. Let’s start with an introductory meeting. It’s 30 minutes online, and it’s free.

How I work

What our work rests on

I don’t give advice, and I don’t know better than you what is right. Right is whatever suits you. My job is to ask the questions you don’t ask yourself and to help you hear your own answers.

Emotional intelligence

You learn to notice what you feel and to understand what your feelings are telling you. Emotions stop controlling your decisions and start guiding you.

Spiral Dynamics

Helps you see which values are guiding you right now and why your old rules suddenly stopped working in a new country. That way it becomes clear what matters to you.

Thinking and focus of attention

Your thinking and your attention are your main resource. We notice the thoughts that go round in circles and direct attention to where there is a solution, not to where it feels scary. The focus shifts — and you have more energy.

How the brain works

An insight is only half the job. The other half is making the new part of your life. For that there is repetition, a body anchor and a small, doable step between meetings.

How the work goes

The first meeting — not an exam

If you have never been to a coach before, here is what will happen. Everything is set up so that you feel calm and safe.

30 minutesfreeonlineeverything stays between us
Write “ВСТРЕЧА” in Telegram
  1. Step 1

    You write to me

    Send the word ВСТРЕЧА in Telegram. You can add a couple of lines about yourself and what is going on right now. No need to phrase it nicely, that’s my job.

  2. Step 2

    We get to know each other

    It’s 30 minutes online, and it’s free. I’ll ask you a few questions about yourself and tell you honestly whether I can help. If not, I’ll suggest who would be better to turn to.

  3. Step 3

    The session — time just for you

    We meet by video call, and all my attention belongs to you. You don’t need to prepare or bring anything. Everything you say stays between us.

  4. Step 4

    You take a step for yourself

    Each meeting ends with more than just a realisation. At the end we find a small, concrete action for your sake that you will really take before the next meeting.

Your path with me

Step by step — from where you are now

You don’t have to go through every step. Start with the one that is about you right now. Every step is a way of caring for yourself. Click any block — you’ll see what you can come with and what you’ll leave with.

Everything is online and in Russian. Where it says “ask me about the price personally”, the price is still being confirmed, write to me and I’ll tell you.

The result of our work

What changes for you

Coaching is a partnership. Results come when we work together, you and me.

Client reviews

What clients say

Clients’ words from messages, from Instagram and from real conversations after our sessions.

Even a guide needs a guide. Thank you for the coaching sessions that gave me confidence and belief in my goal, and most importantly, I started taking action and moving towards it.
A client’s words
Realising that my decisions, and what I allow myself, rest on my values turned my world upside down. Two months have passed since our exploratory work, and I still can’t imagine how I lived without it. Simple questions that hit the mark, understanding, acceptance and warmth in your words — and voilà, the result. Working with you is like a jeweller cutting a diamond. You don’t rush, and step by step, question by question, you remove the stone armour layer by layer to reveal the true essence. With you, I was born.
A client’s words
A great bot for settling into Switzerland! It really helps you understand the local nuances — from everyday questions to official correspondence. I used its tips on writing a letter, did everything as the bot advised and got a positive result. It saved me a lot of time and stress. I recommend it to anyone who has just moved or wants to feel more confident in Switzerland.
A client’s words
Personal coaching sessions
I came to the session because I’m planning to train as a psychotechnologist, and decided to try being the client. To say that one session turned me upside down is an understatement. I was ready for something to come up, but not for it to happen in an area of my life where I thought everything was fine. That’s your fine craftsmanship — finding what really needs attention. Working with my feelings was very gentle and caring, and piece by piece a lot of self-acceptance appeared. Now I’m not afraid to do the inner work, or to go and study. Huge thanks to you!
A client’s words
Personal coaching sessions
It works because it’s a very precise process, and the way it’s built brings results even with the most tangled and tight things. And you are the one leading it. You’re a lighthouse that shines. What kind of person you must be for people to trust you with things they tell no one. It wasn’t a waste of time at all. I’m happy.
A client’s words
Personal coaching sessions
Thank you for our work. Your caring approach really resonates with me, and so does the fact that we work not only through talking but also through the body. I feel the result right after a session — things get lighter, as if the inner tension goes away, and there’s more calm and clarity. And then the changes start showing up in my life too. I choose myself more often, see my automatic reactions more clearly and fall into old patterns less. Now it matters more to me to stay myself and trust myself. Thank you for your support and a safe space.
A client’s words
Personal coaching sessions
I want to express my deepest gratitude for your patience, attentiveness, gentleness and humanity. And above all for your professionalism in untangling my almost detective-like story. Thanks to your approach, I was able to unravel the whole tangle of memories, find the connections between them and understand many meanings that now help me with other questions too. And special thanks for helping me organise it all, step by step, into a separate file. That helps a lot too.
A client’s words
Thank you for making the bot free to use. It’s a real help when you need to quickly figure out what to do here in Switzerland and have no one to ask.
A client’s words
Thank you for our long work together. It turned my mindset upside down. I learned first-hand that when you change your thinking, your life changes too.
A client’s words
I’ve managed to start building my own business. Small for now, but it’s already mine, and I’m moving forward.
A client’s words
Have you also had a session with me, or used the bot or a test? It would mean a lot to me to hear what has changed.

Frequently asked questions

What people usually ask

How is coaching different from psychotherapy?

Therapy more often works with the past and with what hurts. Coaching works with the present and with where you want to go. I don’t treat or diagnose; I help you find your own solution and get to action.

How many sessions do I need?

For a specific question, one to three are often enough. For changes on the level of “who do I want to be here”, three months or more. I’ll tell you more precisely after we meet.

I have nothing to say, I can’t even put into words what I want to work on

That’s a normal start, not an obstacle. Putting it into words is part of my job. It’s enough to come with the phrase “something’s not right”.

Is it confidential?

Yes. Everything that happens in a session stays between us — a coach’s professional ethics require it, and I follow them.

I don’t live in Switzerland. Does it work?

Yes, all sessions take place online. We’ll take the time difference into account when booking.

And what if it doesn’t click after the first session?

Then we don’t continue — and that’s a perfectly normal outcome. The 30-minute introductory meeting is there precisely to check this before you pay.

When coaching isn’t the right fit

Coaching works when you have the strength to move. There are times when you need a doctor or a psychotherapist more — and I’ll tell you so directly, because your wellbeing matters more.

  • An acute state, when getting through an ordinary day is hard
  • A recent loss or trauma that hasn’t been processed yet
  • A request like “diagnose me” or “prescribe me treatment”
  • Wanting someone else to change, not you
  • Expecting a ready-made plan and instructions — that’s what a consultant is for

If you’re having thoughts of not wanting to live, or you’re in danger, please contact a doctor or the emergency services in your country. There’s no shame in it. I’ll always tell you who to turn to.

Let’s get to know each other

Send me the word ВСТРЕЧА on Telegram, and we’ll find a time for the first 30 minutes about you. It’s free and there’s no obligation.
