FAQ
Common Questions
Before you book: the things people usually want to know first.
Is This Therapy?
No. Therapy typically treats diagnosed conditions and works with the past. This works with the architecture producing your present: the patterns, beliefs and environments still running your life right now. Many clients work with both.
Is This Supportive, Empathetic Coaching?
Not in the usual sense. I don't offer reassurance or tell you what you want to hear. What I offer is precise observation and complete honesty: I show you the architecture I see, including the parts you've learned not to look at. That clarity is what makes change possible.
How Many Sessions Will I Need?
It depends on what you're working with. Some shifts happen in a single conversation. Others need a longer process, because real architecture doesn't rebuild itself in an hour. There's no fixed number. That's why packages exist: so the commitment matches the work itself rather than a guess.
What If It Doesn't Work for Me?
Every architecture is different, so every conversation is too, and no script works for everyone. What I can promise is the method: careful observation, no generic advice, and complete honesty if I think this isn't the right fit for what you need.
Why Don't You Offer a Free Consultation?
Because the first few minutes of a session are often where the real work already starts. Giving that away for free would mean giving away the thing you're paying for.
What Happens in the First Session?
We start with whatever keeps repeating for you right now and look for the architecture producing it. No preparation needed. Just come as you are.
What Language Do You Work In?
Sessions are in English or Russian, whichever you think and feel in more freely.
How Do Online Sessions Work?
Each session is 90 minutes, by audio or video on Zoom, Google Meet, Telegram or WhatsApp, whichever works for you. I schedule in Indian Standard Time (IST), so we'll find a slot that fits your time zone.
How Often Do We Meet?
There's no fixed rhythm. The pace follows what's happening in your life. Some people need a session every week, others need time to let one settle before the next.
How Do I Pay?
By card or in crypto. Sessions and packages are paid in advance, when you book.
What If I Need to Cancel or Reschedule?
Once a session is booked, it can't be cancelled or refunded, but it can be rescheduled once. Just let me know as early as you can.
Is What I Share Confidential?
Everything you share stays strictly between us. The stories on Changed Lives are published only with the clients' permission.
Do You Work With Clinical Conditions?
I don't diagnose or treat medical or psychiatric conditions. If you're in treatment, this work can run alongside it, and many clients combine the two.
Can I Contact You Between Sessions?
Yes. If something comes up between sessions, write to me and I'll give you feedback as soon as I can. I may not answer straight away, but you don't have to carry it alone until the next session.
How Do Tantra and Coaching Connect?
They're two doorways into the same work. Coaching makes the architecture visible. Tantra of the Left Hand Path lets you meet it with your whole being instead of avoiding what you were taught to forbid. Both lead to the same place: conscious choice.
Are Tantra and Water Yoga Part of the Coaching?
No. Coaching is a conversation built on the method: Reveal, Decode, Reset, Setup. Tantra, Water Yoga and Tantra Yoga Flow Dance are separate practices with their own sessions. You can choose any of them on its own or alongside coaching.
