Oleksii
Vinohradov

Psychologist, certified Gestalt therapist,
supervisor, trainer, business consultant

I help people find themselves in difficult situations — in relationships, at work, in their sense of self-worth. I work one-on-one, lead therapy groups, and provide supervision for practicing therapists. Sessions are available online for clients all over the world.

Who I am and how I work

My name is Oleksii Vinohradov. I am a psychologist and Gestalt therapist — an accredited therapist, supervisor, and associate trainer of the National Association of Gestalt Therapists of Ukraine (NAGTU). I have been in private practice since 2008.

Gestalt therapy is an approach that helps a person understand themselves better: their feelings, reactions, needs, and the ways they build relationships with the world. I don’t give advice and I don’t “cure”. I walk alongside the person, helping them find their own answers and their own resources.

Beyond individual therapy, I lead psychotherapy groups and training programs. I provide supervision for both beginning and experienced therapists — individual and group. I also have experience in business consulting: questions of career, leadership, and development.

I am a member of the New York Institute for Gestalt Therapy (NYIGT), run a video blog about Gestalt therapy, and publish articles on psychotherapy. I consult online — for clients anywhere in the world. I also offer sessions in English.
