Laima Tamavičienė

I am a medical psychologist. I have been working in the clinical field for more than 10 years. Psychological assessment is a field of work that I am particularly interested in, it allows me to get to know a person. This enables us to identify and understand the problem better, to discover difficulties, and evaluate opportunities and strengths. We sometimes face moments in life when it becomes too hard to cope with the encounter difficulties, to understand and deal with them, so we need the help of another person – a specialist. My professional knowledge and experience in studies, work, and competency-enhancing seminars are interwoven into an integrated approach in consultations, applying various methods depending on the client’s lifestyle and goals.
