Vera Chirkova

I’m a counselling psychologist. I also work as a trainer in Association of Cognitive and Behavioral Psychotherapy (St. Petersburg, Russia). In my work I use evidence-based approaches: CBT and schematherapy. 

I specialise in anxiety disorders, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, body dysmorphic disorder, body focused repetitive behaviours (trichotillomania, excoriation disorder, etc), hoarding, illness anxiety disorder. I also work with people without formal psychiatric diagnosis. I help people with procrastination, lack of self-confidence, relationship problems. 

I have Master’s degree in Psychology. I graduated from Voronezh State University. I was a holder of a fellowship of Oxford Russia Fund twice.
