I am a psychiatrist, doctor of biomedical sciences, and professor of the Psychiatry Clinic of the Lithuanian University of Health Sciences (LSMU). I have acquired education as a psychotherapist (LSMU) specializing in systemic family psychotherapy. I treat depression, anxiety, sleep, somatoform disorders, bipolar disorders, schizophrenia, and schizoaffective disorder.<\/p>\n

In addition to clinical work, I was also interested in scientific activities: I am the author and co-author of more than 50 international scientific publications. 12 of my scientific articles have been published in the international journal citation database \u201cClarivative Analytics Web of Science\u201d.<\/p>\n

The doctor receives a wonderful gift from each patient: their life narrative. We attempt to overcome the weak points in life that keep us from appreciating this day and we keep living it together, learning about the human qualities that enable us to get back up and keep going. I speak and consult fluently in Lithuanian, English, and Russian, and also I understand Polish perfectly.<\/p>\n
