Hi, my name is Dana. I am a transgender woman and a peer coach with lived experience of gender transition and migration. I was born in Kazakhstan and know how challenging it can be to look for safety, start a new life, and learn to accept yourself in a new country.

Peer coaching is about real support from someone who truly understands. I work with LGBTQ+ people and refugees who are going through transition, social anxiety, or difficulties with self-acceptance.

I offer a safe and friendly space where you can talk openly and feel heard. In our work together, we gently explore your experiences, thoughts, and emotions, and find new ways to understand yourself and move forward. Step by step, we focus on building confidence, inner strength, and a life that feels more true to who you are.

I believe that meaningful change happens when you feel supported and understood. You don’t have to go through this alone.

 I’m here to walk this path with you.

Sessions are available in English and Russian.
