Welcome to my Blog.

I designed my website www.veraakulov.com to introduce you to my practice as a psychotherapist. I hope as you browse my website you will get a sense of what I’m like as a psychotherapist, and would be interested to work with me.
 
My preparation in counseling includes both a Masters and Bachelors Degree in Psychology from Northwest University. My Masters Degree was in cross-cultural counseling psychology. Focusing on how our cultural heritage informs our current behavior, values, beliefs, and customs. I integrate my training as a cross-cultural counselor and also use psychodynamic theory to help inform my understanding and treatment of my patients.

In psychotherapy with me I will put my prejudice, biases, and personal issues aside and become an receiver of your story. Your job is to talk about what’s on your mind and speak as freely and honestly as you can. My job is to listen carefully; paying attention to the emotional side of things, so that we can understand better and resolve what might be hurting. Goals of this type of therapy are to increase insight, expand self-awareness, deepen emotional experience and have variety of intimate connections.
