Working with children and teenagers at Psy Development Center

A Psychology Centre Guided by Research and Clinical Practice

We help children, teenagers, adults and families better understand what they are experiencing, cope with psychological difficulties and develop lasting skills for self-regulation and connection with others. Our work is based on clear goals, respect for each client’s individual needs and boundaries, and approaches with established evidence of effectiveness.

We also support families during pregnancy, while preparing for parenthood and as they adjust after a baby is born.

Evidence-Based Approach

We use research-informed methods and internationally recognised assessment protocols.

Individualised Care

The format and plan of support are shaped by each client’s concerns, age, current wellbeing and life context.

Online and In Person

We offer in-person appointments in Moscow and online sessions for clients in different countries.

How We Work

Evidence-Based Practice

We use approaches whose effectiveness has been examined in clinical research.

Individual Approach

We do not apply one standard pathway to every client.

Family Support

When working with children, we consider the family system and the role of significant adults.

Transparency

We discuss goals, the format of support, feedback and next steps in advance.

We monitor progress and adjust the support plan when needed. We do not promise guaranteed outcomes; instead, we work with you toward shared and agreed goals.
