I believe that we all have free will and the opportunity to choose, so issues of freedom, identity, responsibility, sense, and self -actualization are of great importance in the path of personal growth and development. This is the path that I have chosen.

“A few months ago, I was stuck at the crossroads and I couldn’t move from this point. I started individual sessions with the idea that Milena will give me the answer to what to do and what direction is the best for me to choose. However, the answer from her never came – instead, she helped me discover it by myself! Milena loves her job, she works with enthusiasm and full dedication; she raises the mind and spirit on a higher level! I had also attended assertiveness training where I met people similar to me and got the additional motivation to keep working on my development. I became much more open and spontaneous in communication, but more equitable, too. Milena, keep helping people, you are professional in this. Thank you for everything!”
