About Me

I am a Professional Health & Medical Coach and a Medical Doctor trained in Belarus, with over 30 years of healthcare experience across Belarus and the UK, including cardiothoracic surgery. My background gives me a deep understanding of illness and how physical health can affect emotional wellbeing, identity and our sense of the future.

In 2020, I experienced serious illness from the other side of medicine when I was diagnosed with blood cancer. Following chemotherapy, relapse, further treatment and a stem cell transplant, I spent almost two years in treatment during COVID-19, much of it in isolation. Being a patient changed my understanding of what people need beyond medical treatment.

As a Health & Medical Coach, I work with people navigating serious or chronic illness, cancer, chronic stress, burnout and major life transitions — finding clarity and direction through practical tools and coaching approaches adapted to clients, so they can make meaningful choices and move forward on their own terms.
