Vadim facilitates groups with individuals who are navigating psychological challenges, interpersonal conflicts, cultural differences, ideological clashes, and the vulnerabilities of their inner landscapes. His approach is developmental, seeing that before we even become a ‘Self’, we a rooted in relationships: first with caregivers and siblings, eventually with peers and community. It is within these formative relationships where our psychological injuries develop - and it is within relationships where we can heal. Vadim creates warm and supportive group containers, seeing that the group itself is an instrument of deep healing, growth, and insight for us as individuals.

Drawing on his training in Interpersonal Group Therapy and his work on integrative human development, Vadim weaves together a collaborative, relational and embodied space for clients to have insights and understandings into why they are the way they are. And through this process, learning how to move forwards and grow. He sees the unique power of interpersonal group work in helping us cultivate the courage to face our conflicts, to be mirrored in our unconscious patterns, to learn how to ask for help, and to let others in - all dimensions of relationship that can empower us deeply.

As a co-founder of Turning Ground, Vadim has helped shape the integrative philosophy underpinning the practice, drawing on his work in education design, human development, and systemic thinking. He co-facilitates the interpersonal group therapy containers in partnership with qualified psychotherapists.
