MY FAMILY PSYCHOLOGICAL RESEARCH NGO

HEALING STARTS WITH COMPASSION
About us
Welcome to "My Family" Psychological Research NGO, a private practice dedicated to providing psychotherapy/counseling, as well as supervision/mentoring sessions. Our mission is to empower individuals in reconnecting with their True Self, fostering a harmonious relationship with their emotions.
As you establish a profound connection with your True Self, it paves the way for a balanced rapport with your emotions. This state of well-being and interconnectedness shines like a guiding beacon, influencing not only your personal life but also the wider community. Our True Self encompasses qualities such as curiosity, confidence, serenity, creativity, compassion, lucidity, connectivity, and courage.
In addition to our individual services, we offer specialized training for teenagers, adolescents, parents, and those embarking on a journey of self-discovery. Our approach revolves around Compassionate Inquiry, complemented by modalities like Internal Family Systems (IFS), Interpersonal Neurobiology (IPNB), Polyvagal Theory, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

Our mission
Our mission is to be part of collective healing. We do believe that Collective healing starts with individual healing. We endeavor to support you to acknowledge the power within yourself, fostering resilience and attaining a profound sense of wholeness. Therapy, akin to an eagle, soars higher yet delves deeper.
Approaches we work with
Compassionate Inquiry is our know-how. It is a psychotherapeutic approach developed by Dr. Gabor Maté that reveals what lies beneath the appearance we present to the world. It is an unfailing way to reconciliation with oneself and getting rid of traumas.

Interpersonal Neurobiology (IPNB) is primarily a theory and practical working model developed by Daniel J. Siegel which describes human development and functioning as being a product of the relationship between the body, mind and relationships.

Polyvagal Theory is a brain-body science developed by Stephen Porges, helped thousands of therapists make significant breakthroughs with clients suffering the impacts of trauma.

Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a powerfully transformative, evidence-based model of psychotherapy. We believe the mind is naturally multiple and that is a good thing. Our inner parts contain valuable qualities and our core Self knows how to heal, allowing us to become integrated and whole.

Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) is a comprehensive psychotherapy that helps you process and recover from past experiences that are affecting your mental health and wellbeing. It involves using side to side eye movements combined with talk therapy in a specific and structured format.

Testimonials

  • IThe journey turned out to be nothing like I anticipated. It was everything from painful and tough to relieving, surprising and joyful. When I was searching for help I had only a specific problem to work with but soon enough we went deeper and deeper and it turned out to be exactly what I needed to work with. The further we went down this road the more revelations I made about myself, some were frightening while being of absolute importance and others were fascinating and euphoric at times. For every layer that we dug deeper I came across past situations connected to my current emotions that had to be accepted and acknowledged.
    In a very careful and compassionate manner I was guided by Varduhi down the road of discoveries. She led me through the ignorance and unwillingness of seeing myself, accepting myself and loving myself as I am. She brought me to the realization of how what I thought to be insignificant and unimportant was actually the cause of recurring emotions and behaviors that have had a huge impact on my current life.
    An unexpected "side effect" of my work with Varduhi is that my relationship with my family, my husband and sons (one of them still a teenager), has improved in an amazing way. And I wasn't even looking for that! That was a beautiful turn!
    I'm beyond grateful to have met such a practitioner with whom I felt absolutely safe every second of our conversations, with whom I could be myself, my genuine, real self and who created the space for me to befriend and accept this "real self" !

  • I met Varduhi in a breakout room in a Gabor Mate workshop. I was instantly impressed with her ability to get straight to what was bothering me and helping me to see what my symptom of fatigue actually was and what it represented- to avoid feeling pain. A way of checking out. Over the rest of the year we explored lots of different things and she gently opened my eyes to what was really going on and has helped me increase my breadth of emotions I am able to tolerate. She really helped me to feel rather than to just exist in my head.
