TEAM

Rūta Arnold

I am a clinical psychologist. My work is based on the idea that each human being's experience, feelings, thoughts and worldview are unique, authentic and worthy of respect. In my work, I aim to help people to better understand themselves, and to discover the resources and pathways that are right for them, to help them cope with their difficulties, and perhaps to help them to live more authentically and more fully. I believe that a conversation with a psychologist creates a very unique space in which it is safe and enjoyable to explore both the difficulties that arise and the questions that arise about ourselves and the world around us. Becoming more aware of our thoughts, behaviours, feelings, and ideas about how we view the world and ourselves, how we build our relationships with others, opens up a special space for change in life.

Before becoming a psychologist, I spent 7 years working in other industries - digital products and restaurant businesses. I also spent 4 years travelling and working in different countries. Most of the time I lived in Canada and New Zealand, but I also spent a lot of time travelling in Asia, India and America. I have also completed a certified yoga teacher training (RYT 200h, Yoga Alliance) in Koh Phangan, Thailand. I believe that my diverse experience in life helps me to better understand and respond to the human challenges, needs and peculiarities of life that modern people face.

I have gained experience as a psychologist at the Vilnius City Mental Health Centre (Vasaros Hospital) during my professional practice, working both individually and in groups in the Inpatient Day Unit and Suicide Prevention Unit. For more than a year I have been running psychoeducational groups in the Psychosocial Rehabilitation Unit.

WHEN TO SEE A PSYCHOLOGIST?

I invite you to contact me if you are experiencing emotional difficulties (anxiety, low mood, feelings of distress, fear, loneliness, etc.), if you are going through a difficult and usually abnormal period (crises, losses, illnesses, divorce, traumatic experiences, etc. ), if you are experiencing relationship issues, if you are having difficulties with your self-image (self-confidence, identity search, career or other choices, etc.), if you want to better understand and accept yourself and if you want to make changes in your life (to notice and better understand your behavioral and relationship patterns, etc.).

I provide counselling for adults and senior adolescents.

Milda Baronaitė-Marcinkevičė

I am a clinical psychologist and psychotherapist candidate (Jungian psychotherapy). I try to be warm and present with my clients. I don't pretend I know how everyone should live their lives, but I don't shy away from sharing what I notice during sessions. When starting work with a new person, I try to listen carefully and usually adapt to what the person brings to the table—for those who need to talk, I can give them more space, and if someone finds it harder to talk about themselves, I ask questions about their current problems and strengths, as well as the most important events in their past. I don't shy away from humor and spontaneity when they arise naturally with the client.

I am a fairly rational person, but I also have another side that I cultivate in my personal therapy and therapy studies — the language of feelings, which is very unlike the language of "logic" that we are most accustomed to these days. I believe that the subconscious and its various manifestations play an important role in people's lives, so in my long-term work, I invite clients to get to know that part of themselves better (through dreams, associations and images, or simply everyday events).

In cases of crisis or where you come with a specific problem, we will focus more on solving that specific problem, helping you find stability, survive difficult symptoms, and alleviate them. In long-term work, we can delve deeper into relationship dynamics, your recurring patterns, dreams, and feelings that arise in therapy.

I am interested in the latest psychological research, I am pursuing further qualifications, and I adhere to the code of ethics for psychologists. I entered psychology after working in another field (my first degree is in philology), so I have experience in office work, living abroad, and so on.

When to contact me?

I invite you to seek counselling if you are going through a difficult or challenging period in your life (crisis, loss, life or relationship changes), if you are experiencing emotional difficulties (anxiety, panic attacks, depression), if you are having difficulties in your relationships, or if you want to get to know yourself better. I am interested in topics that are often relevant to LGBT+ people (identity, reactions of others, coming out) and welcome people of different identities.

I counsel adults.
