What happens in the first session
50 minutes one‑to‑one with a specialist
Share what is happening at your own pace. The psychologist will help identify what matters most and agree with you on a useful place to begin.
02 · What brings people here
What is weighing on you most?
Choose a familiar situation, or come with a feeling that does not have a precise name yet.
02 / 07
You are running out of energy
You keep functioning, but inside you have felt empty for a long time.
03 / 07
Everything changed after infidelity
You do not know how to move forward or whether trust can return.
04 / 07
The relationship has ended
You need to live through divorce and rebuild life around yourself.
05 / 07
Being seen feels frightening
Your voice, body, and thoughts fail you exactly when speaking matters.
06 / 07
Self‑criticism is taking over
Other people’s judgement is louder than your own, and confidence keeps shrinking.
07 / 07
It is hard to say no
Setting a boundary brings guilt, so agreeing again feels easier.
AI and a psychologist
An answer is not the whole conversation.
A chatbot can help organise your thoughts. Counselling adds a relationship with a person and professional agreements. Here is how a general‑purpose AI chat and counselling differ today.
Finding the words
- AI chat
- Helps you write down feelings, find questions and get additional information. Its answers need checking.
- Psychologist
- Asks about context and works with you to identify what matters and where to begin.
Feelings in the relationship
- AI chat
- Attachment and expectations can also arise towards a bot. That does not mean the system reciprocates feelings.
- Psychologist
- Feelings and expectations towards the psychologist can be noticed and explored together.
The other side of the interaction
- AI chat
- Generates a reply, but this is not a therapist’s personal emotional experience.
- Psychologist
- A psychologist notices and reflects on their own reactions, including in supervision. These reactions are not infallible intuition.
Agreements and boundaries
- AI chat
- Operates under the service’s rules. A general‑purpose chatbot does not replace a professional relationship with a psychologist.
- Psychologist
- You agree on the format, cost, confidentiality and boundaries of the work. You can discuss what does not feel right for you.
- AI chat
- Helps you write down feelings, find questions and get additional information. Its answers need checking.
- Psychologist
- Asks about context and works with you to identify what matters and where to begin.

Testimonials
What stays after a conversation
A conversation does not make everything simple. It can make what is happening a little clearer.
It feels like some inner support is appearing. I catch myself thinking: why would I not manage without them? I can.
Working in the group was interesting, emotionally rich, useful and effective for me. Different people brought different processes.
I saw my inner world, and other people’s inner worlds, from new angles. It was definitely good for me.
Feelings of any intensity, positive or negative, can be endured without falling apart.
Once these things are spoken out loud, something starts moving. My dreams changed, and other people’s stories help me notice similar places in myself.
I cannot say it is always easy. Sometimes it feels intense. But the changes are encouraging and give me strength to keep going.
By talking with other participants, you begin to understand yourself better.
Group work opens new ways to look at myself and at how I communicate with others.
I noticed that I have a new favorite thing: working with my inner life. And I genuinely love it.
It was my first experience of online group dynamics, and it turned out to be powerful. A lot kept unfolding afterwards.
I want to thank you. Often, deeply, sincerely. For the strength applied with care to a wounded psyche…
I gradually started noticing and distinguishing my states better. Earlier, “thinking” and “feeling” were almost the same thing for me…
