Habits that can help you Navigate Stress in a Hectic Life
The world moves faster than our nervous systems can keep up with, constantly pushing us to do more, be more, and have more. We’re told that success, happiness, and fulfillment are always just one step ahead, but even when we achieve those goals, it often feels like it’s never enough. The pressure to constantly achieve, compete, and keep up with everyone else leaves us exhausted, disconnected, and burned out. It’s no surprise that, in the chaos of it all, we lose touch with what truly matters to us and find ourselves on the edge of burnout.
Things Your Therapist or Coach would Want You to Know
In my journey as both a therapist and a coach, every client interaction has led to profound insights into myself and human relationships. These experiences have shaped my approach and deepened my understanding of what truly supports growth. In this post, I’m sharing key things that I believe, and many therapists and coaches would agree, are essential for clients to understand as they embark on their own transformative journeys.
WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Real Stories, Real Impact
Be inspired by those who have embraced transformation through therapy, coaching, and our courses.
“I had the privilege of working with Cristina for a year, and it was truly transformative. Her coaching brought fresh perspectives to my challenges, helping me overcome inner doubts, focus on what truly matters in both my personal and professional life, and unlock my full potential. Thanks to her unwavering support and guidance, I was able to take decisive steps that ultimately led me to my dream job. Thank you, Cristina, for making such a meaningful impact on my journey!”
Carole Polsterer – COO of Kayali
“I am grateful to Cristina for our sessions, which helped me uncover and understand my inner parts, work toward understanding myself and reflect on the reasons behind certain feelings and actions. These sessions also provided tools to cope with and overcome a difficult life situation. I can recommend Cristina as a professional skilled in various techniques that can help, as well as a pleasant, interesting, and caring person.”
Tatiana Fedotova, Controlling manager
I’m incredibly grateful to Cristina for helping me realize that if we couldn’t live happily in marriage, it didn’t mean it was a life sentence. In our sessions, Cristina helped to work with my father’s disapproval, to go through it and to allow myself live a happy life.
I felt encouraged to pursue my dreams and passions and to allow myself to cultivate a better relationship with myself and healthier relationships with others. Two years ago, I never could have imagined playing my favorite song on a guitar at the top of a mountain or dancing in the streets as a performer, trying all these new activities, and cultivating a healthy and happy relationship with a man—but now, those things are a part of my life. Now I am no longer pursued by the question: “Do I do anything important in my life, do I take a significant place here?”. Now that I take full responsibility for the course my life takes, this question has simply vanished. Other questions arise, sometimes difficult, but I realize all the effort was worth it. I am grateful to myself and to everyone who helped me come to this state of mind.
My life is now full of new experiences. After a long period of struggling, I found a great job in a completely new topic as a junior business analyst, moved into a new apartment with my daughter, and tried new activities like balance board, slackline, and spinning poi. I’ve become more self-aware, understanding not only my own feelings and fears but also becoming more attuned to the motivations of others around me. More than that, I find other self-aware people who inspire me.
By taking care of myself, I’ve become a better parent. My daughter is thriving, exploring new hobbies, and I support her in every new adventure. She has a lot of struggles that any teenager’s life is full of, but I’m confident and calm about her – I’m sure that she’ll cope with it all right and I’m so proud of her. The self-compassion practices we worked on together with Cristina have helped me get in touch with my fears and feelings, and they’ve also shaped how I show up for others. They became a part of my routine.
Cristina, I really hope that you continue working as a psychologist because I don’t know where my mindset, decisions, and life would be without our sessions—they gave a huge boost to my personal development. So I really want you to help other people as well.
Natalia maslova, Business Analyst
“Working with Cristina has been incredibly impactful. I’ve learned to use my strengths more effectively, and her guidance has helped me improve my communication and decision-making. As a result, I feel more confident and capable of achieving both my personal and professional goals. A breakthrough moment for me was when we role-played a challenging relationship situation. It helped me express feelings I hadn’t been fully aware of and gave me valuable insights into my behavior. It also allowed me to see things from the other person’s perspective, which helped me understand my reactions better and approach similar situations with more clarity. It was a real eye-opener and made me more aware of myself and my interactions. These sessions have significantly enhanced my self-awareness and growth.”
Lucas, Business Analyst
“I found Cristina’s services through work during a very challenging time in my professional career. Her ability to calm me down with reason, her straightforwardness, her extensive knowledge and use of multiple approaches (psychological sciences, meditation, internal family systems and openness to spiritual topics) have impressed me. Her coaching has been very valuable to me and have pushed me to a place in life where I feel more secure and more clear to head towards a new path.”
Lilly, Entrepreneur
One of the biggest changes for me has been learning how to disconnect from work and be fully present with my family. I have so much more energy now to invest in the relationships that matter most. My performance anxiety has also improved a lot—I feel more composed and confident in tough situations. I’ve gotten better at handling stress and setbacks, and I’m way more in tune with my emotions. All of these changes have really made a difference, and I’m feeling genuinely optimistic about what’s ahead.”
Petru, Sales Manager
“Thank you so much for the amazing sessions. From the very start, I knew reaching out to you was the right choice. You’ve really listened to me, and I can’t express enough how much that has meant. I’ve learned so much about myself — especially why I’ve been struggling with certain things. You’ve helped me understand my motivations better and really get to the root causes of some of the challenges I’ve been facing. Thanks to you, I’ve been able to focus more efficiently, manage my time better, and build habits that actually stick. I’m so grateful for all the insights I’ve gained about myself while working with you!”
