Наталия Владимировна (Omsk) Psycholog

Hello, visitor to Natalia Vladimirovna Kovaleva’s page!

I will not list the psychological suffering that you have already encountered; you can read about them when you simply type my first, patronymic and last name on the Internet, with the note “child and adolescent psychotherapist.” I work with any of your requests.
And I know that you are looking for the specialist who will help you. But it is not written on the specialist’s forehead whether he is good or not, how much he can help, and I know that in our time we don’t want to pay just anyone.
Therefore, I will only describe the answer to the main question: “What will they do during the consultation?”

The first myth: you need to get together and come with a ready-made request.
The fact is that, being in a situation, you see only what your attention is directed to. And it is aimed at something painful. And therefore, from experience I know that the request that is being made is very superficial. And only in the process of conversation we find the answer.

Second myth: Everything should change from the first consultation.
At the first consultation, I will ask you a very large number of questions. We will dive into different periods of your life to find the very failure that has now led to suffering. At the first consultation, magical comforting handkerchiefs will come in handy, because mental pain, unfortunately, cannot be treated under anesthesia. And I know what it’s like to talk about yourself, about your experiences and relive them.

Third myth: From the first consultation, the psychologist knows exactly what is happening, why it is happening, and with a quick impact changes life.
During the consultation, I have to do a lot of internal work: observation, hear your story, collect details about the manifestation of suffering, determine what is happening to you (the cause is trauma, character, beliefs and values, personality disorder, internal conflicts, body diseases , or this is an acute traumatic situation), determine the characteristics of your character, the range of manifestations (and I will sometimes need to provoke you in order to see your vulnerability and ways of responding in order to know you thoroughly), then clearly tell you why this is happening to you, how the direction of psychotherapy this is treated and what results are possible.
We then select techniques that are appropriate for you, based on your impairments and personality traits, and conduct therapeutic sessions for healing.
Then the supporting stage, when you come and we work with the failures of the already created new personal and psychological mechanisms.
In this way, you are freed from suffering and, as it were, born again, or returned to yourself, long lost along the road of life.

If the consultation is with a child or teenager, then in addition to the conversation, it is important to observe the child in play, in creativity, in order to understand what experiences the child transfers to his parents, what the child cannot cope with, and signals his suffering by behavior, whims, illnesses of the body or poor studies or the child was bullied, or the child stopped wanting something and talks about the uselessness of his life and worries you very much. After all, children are not aware of all internal processes.
Working with a child cannot be separate from the parents, therefore, there are meetings with the child, and there are meetings with the parents.

Children and teenagers show their deep unconscious dramas in the game. This is the first point. And secondly, play can be a source of resistance and psychological protection, thanks to which the child tries to keep everything under control. The child cannot speak about his experiences in words; he symbolizes them in play. Games can be stereotypical and repetitive in nature. For example, he built a tower and smashed it. Built and smashed, built and smashed. The therapist does nothing for the child or adolescent. He simply stays nearby, understands the child and gives interpretations to what is happening, helping the child cope with internal conflicts.

It happens that understanding with a child is so disrupted, as if a stranger lives in the family. It's a shame? Hurt? And it's not the parent's fault. It's nobody's fault. It’s just that something is isolated in the child’s psyche. And this is what changes the child’s personality - the process of research. And then it will be possible to accurately determine which direction of psychotherapy will help your child, which specific techniques and with what result.
And there will be many feelings, for example, jealousy. The mother wants to be the only close person for the child, but here the child walks around, tells something about himself, about the family. And what else will he say about family and mother, it’s not clear. Suddenly he says something bad, and the psychologist decides that everything is bad in the family. And you and I definitely need to work with such experiences in order to work through your childhood experiences that are unconsciously transmitted to your child and affect the process of psychological assistance.

I am not a standard or predictable psychotherapist. I can irritate some people when I don’t do what you expected. And that's okay. I know that you have already heard words of sympathy and empathy, you have already been told that everything will be fine with you, that everything is fine with the child, but problems do not go away, they only change their face. And I try not to start helping at random without thoroughly understanding your story.

Consultations are conducted in person and via Skype.
