Individual Therapy & Analysis

Welcome! I am Olena Barannik — an analytically oriented psychologist, group therapist, and member of the UAAP/IAAP. For over 14 years, I have been accompanying individuals within the space of individual and group psychotherapeutic work.

Individual therapy is a safe and confidential space in which a close, attentive encounter with your own inner world, experiences, dreams, life crises, and unconscious processes — manifesting through emotions, images, and relationships — becomes possible.

Jungian analysis is a path of gradual return to oneself, to a more complete and living contact with one's internal reality. In my work, I approach the human psyche with deep respect and care, believing that even the most complex experiences carry meaning and can be understood within a safe therapeutic space.

We move at your own pace — without pressure, haste, or imposed solutions. My role as an analyst is to establish a secure framework within which you can explore complex feelings, internal conflicts, life losses, crisis states, and profound questions of identity.

Areas of Practice

In my practice, I work with adult clients in the following areas:

  • work with dreams, symbols, and images of the unconscious
  • crisis and pivotal periods of life
  • consequences of psychological trauma and difficult experiences
  • anxiety states, emotional exhaustion, internal instability
  • difficulties in relationships and questions of personal boundaries
  • experiences of loss, migration, forced changes, and adaptation
  • the search for internal support, meaning, and authenticity
  • processes of individuation and deep self-discovery

A central aspect of my work is the close, attentive exploration of the symbolic language of the psyche — dreams, spontaneous images, somatic experiences, and emotional states through which the unconscious often seeks to communicate with us.

Analytical Frame

Deep psychotherapeutic work requires a reliable and stable framework that establishes a sense of safety and holds the process.
