Who Iryna works with

Iryna coaches women who care for a parent with dementia. Many are also raising kids and holding down jobs. They manage medical needs and daily changes at home. From the outside they look like they have it handled, but they feel empty and guilty inside.

How Iryna works

Coaching is one on one, for one hour a week over twelve weeks. It happens online. It starts with a free consultation call where Iryna and the client talk through what is going on and what they want to change, and both decide if they are a good match. Iryna focuses on the beliefs that drive the exhaustion, such as the idea that a good daughter never complains.
