ACT/CBS Background and Training: I had in-person basic training in ACT in Helsinki, Finland, where I completed my PhD in the University of Helsinki. I continued education in ACT with online training at Psychwire with Russ Harris (ACT for depression and anxiety, ACT for ADHD, Trauma-focused ACT, ACT for loss and grief) as well as via extensive reading and being an active participant of the Association of contextual and behavioral science in Russia.
ACT/CBS Experience: 4 years
Additional Information: My primary focus at work is on perinatal mental health. As a practitioner and a researcher I am interested in exploring the benefits of applying ACT approach to support families during the pre-conception, pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood periods.
