Boryana

I was born in Bulgaria, in the most beautiful of mountains near the Greek border — into a family of a medical doctor and an engineer, and traditions of caring for each other and our community. The magic of those mountains is always with me: a source of harmony, belonging, and peace.

I came to Finland 25 years ago, just after graduating from the Medical University in Sofia, invited to work on scientific research. Finland has become my second home — in more ways than one.

My path has grown from medicine into psychotherapy, integrative health, supervision, and teaching. A central thread has always been preventive care — strengthening psychological and physical resources before exhaustion or illness take hold.

My work is guided by presence, authenticity, responsibility, and compassion. I integrate logotherapy, mindfulness-based approaches, and nature-informed practices. Meaning, awareness, and connection to one's environment are essential to sustainable health. 

As a työnohjaaja, I work with individuals and teams navigating demanding environments both at work or in their personal lives, supporting resilience, clarity, and ethical awareness.

I also give seminars and lectures on mental health, resilience, and integrative health — combining science with practical tools and reflective dialogue. We can meet at my office, online, in your work premises or in nature. 

Working with my dog and in natural settings is central to who I am professionally. Nature reminds us of unconditional rhythm, recovery, and quiet strength.

I feel privileged to accompany people in times of transition and renewal — offering safe space, knowledge and structure, and steady presence while supporting each person's unique path toward meaning and sustainable wellbeing.
