My Story

Hello, I'm Tam, a UK-registered counsellor and therapist specializing in all types of anxiety, stress and life crisis management, as well as adult ADHD. Originally from Kyrgyzstan, I pursued my education and professional registration in London, had worked in mental health NGO clinics in Hong Kong, and am currently working privately in Switzerland. These experiences have shaped my understanding of how different cultures and life circumstances impact mental health. 

I came to psychotherapy from a business background, driven by my fascination with the complexities of human psychology, particularly how stress (work pressure, relationship issues, divorce, grief, health conditions, traumatic events etc.) affects our mental health and how building resilience and developing stress management and emotional regulation skills can help us navigate life. This interest was deeply personal, as I had experienced debilitating anxiety myself that was triggered by major stressors in my life and complicated by ADHD diagnoses. It was a challenging journey, but overcoming my anxiety and learning how to manage ADHD, stress, and life crises effectively, became the best thing I have ever done for my own happiness and well-being. That personal experience not only transformed my life but also changed my career trajectory and gave me a mission: to help others navigate their own struggles with anxiety, adult ADHD, stress, and general emotional overwhelm so they too can reclaim their peace and live fulfilling lives.

I also provide specialised counseling to women undergoing IVF/infertility treatments, struggling with relationship / dating issues, or navigating life after a difficult divorce. 

I offer therapy and counselling in both English and Russian, working in-person with clients based in St. Gallen and Zurich areas, as well as clients worldwide through online sessions.

My approach

"We cannot stop life from happening. Stresses, worries, and struggles - are all part of life. But what we can do is find the right support when it feels too overwhelming, learn how to сope with stressful situations, how to overcome our fears, and heal from our traumas."

In my work, I focus on three main outcomes:

01

To help you feel heard, understood, and supported, without judgment.

02

To help you understand why you feel, react, or behave the way you do—so that things finally start to make sense.

03

And most importantly, to teach you valuable resilience skills and give you practical, real-life tools that will empower you to create lasting change. By the end of therapy, you’ll be able to rely on yourself to navigate tough times and feel in control of your life.

Benefits of Working with Me

Therapy That’s Just for You

No cookie-cutter solutions here. Every session is tailored to fit your specific needs and goals. I take the time to understand what you’re going through and create a plan that works best for you.

Results You Can See

We’ll focus on real, practical changes that make a difference in your life. While we may explore your past, we won’t spend endless sessions talking about it. The main goal is to help you move forward and create the future you want.

Tools You’ll Use for Life

I’ll teach you skills and share tools that you can use long after therapy ends. These are designed to help you feel better now and give you the confidence to handle whatever comes your way in the future.

Get Results—Fast

I know your time is valuable, so I focus on making progress quickly. Most of my clients notice big improvements after just 5 sessions. While you’re always welcome to continue therapy as long as you need, I design therapy plans with efficiency in mind, typically targeting goals within 2–7 sessions.
