Astghik Mnatsakanyan

An interesting fact about me:

Life is full of tasks to accomplish, but I believe the most important one is to truly live it. That's why I always find time to play board games and enjoy delicious meals with my loved ones. When I’m alone, my companions are a needle and thread—embroidery has become my personal coping mechanism.

Irvin Yalom

Yalom’s theoretical yet practical perspectives and deeply humanistic approach form a necessary foundation for psychotherapists. His writing skills are also valuable, as his works not only teach but help one feel the essence of psychotherapy, which is essential in our profession.
