Family session (3+ participants) 90 min from 8,000 ₽ Anna Soboleva
Recommendation: for the first couples meeting, we recommend the extended format (80 min) so both partners have enough time to speak and the therapist can form a complete picture.

3. Messenger-Based Support

Messenger-based support — a between-session support format or standalone service for those who need regular psychological help in a flexible format. You communicate with your specialist via a convenient messenger (Telegram, WhatsApp) — using audio and text messages.

Service Format Price Specialist
Messenger support Audio and text messages, responses within 48 hours from 3,000 ₽ / week Any center specialist
How it works:
• You choose a specialist and agree on the communication format
• You send voice or text messages at a convenient time
• The specialist responds within 48 hours — with in-depth analysis and recommendations
• Payment is weekly — you are not tied to a long-term contract
Best suited for: this format is ideal for those who cannot allocate fixed time for online sessions, travel frequently, live in a different time zone, or simply prefer written/audio communication over live conversation.

4. Session Formats

Format Details Best for
In-person (Moscow) Meetings at the center's office. In-person contact, tactile BLS available Those living in Moscow who value in-person presence
Online (video) Zoom / Google Meet. Visual and auditory BLS via screen. Effectiveness comparable to in-person format Clients from other cities and countries; those with a busy schedule
100% Anonymous therapy AI-based face and voice masking. No personal data shared Public figures, executives, people with high privacy requirements

5. Payment & Terms

Important: we do not work with health insurance (DMS) and do not cooperate with insurance companies. All services are paid directly by the client.

6. Free Introductory Session

Every new client of the center can take advantage of a free 20-minute introductory session . This is not a "trial consultation" in a reduced format, but a full introduction that includes:

  1. Getting acquainted — you meet the specialist (in-person or online) and can ask any questions about their qualifications and approach;
  2. Discussion of your situation — you briefly describe what concerns you, and the specialist provides preliminary feedback;
  3. Work plan — if you decide to continue, the specialist will propose a tentative therapy plan and answer questions about duration and frequency of meetings.
The introductory session is completely non-binding. If you feel the specialist or method isn't right for you — you simply don't book the next meeting. We believe in informed choice.

7. Get in Touch

To schedule your free introductory session, message us on your preferred messenger:
