Visual therapy
Author’s project of photographer Liana Darenskaya and psychologist Svetlana Vakulenko.This is a great opportunity to see yourself from the outside and trace the transformation of personality.MY UNIQUE = Me + Psychologist + PhotographerShoots are held on weekends!
What is waiting for you
1. At the preliminary meeting (in online format) you voice your request and the psychologist collects the necessary data about you.
2. Photo session. Me + psychologist + photographer. Psychotherapy session in the studio space. You do not sit in a chair, but move, express emotions. The camera, in the hands of the photographer, catalyzes your unconscious processes.
3. A week later, at the second meeting with the psychologist, the photoanalytical map is analyzed.
The photographer will prepare an individual set for you.
As a result you will receive:
— photos that reveal a wide amplitude of experienced emotions;
— photo analysis with understanding of the true reasons of your limitations and internal conflicts;
— understanding: how you can become more feminine or more determined and courageous; fully and holistically manifest yourself in ordinary life and business;
— professional black-and-white and color photos for your further identification, which you will use for a long time to work on yourself; — the opportunity to become more relaxed in movements.
Svitlana Vakulenko — psychologist
I’m a practicing psychologist. I know more about you than you know about yourself. I have conducted more than 2000 family and individual counseling sessions. I invite you to make your life more interesting and easier.
For me, the project “Visual Therapy” is a high, because I immediately see the changes that occur in a person. It’s about honesty with yourself, it’s about discovering yourself and your uniqueness.
Liana Darenskaya — photographer
More than 10 years in photography. Publications in Russian and foreign magazines. Studied art history, took courses in creative and fashion photography.
Main direction — creative and portrait sessions. Runs a blog on Telegram. Formerly a journalist and publisher, theoretical physicist. For me, Visual Therapy is a way to unlock creativity and an amazing collaboration. Including the discovery of self.
What to choose
Depending on your desire to change and discover your true self, you can choose any format of interaction. You can come back afterward for an individual session, creative or work session. To a photographer or psychologist, when you will live and know how you can be your Self and not what everyone wants you to be.

Women
“Success comes only to those who dare to try.”
Every morning you wake up wondering why this is so…? (Everyone put something different here). You live a faded life, as if someone has taken and washed away all the colors in your life. You feel lonely. Your body has gained excess weight and is signaling that you can’t wait any longer! You need to change now and today, without waiting for signs from the universe. Nothing can dim the light that shines from within you. Believe in yourself a little more. Try looking at yourself through the eyes of a photographer. Challenge your masks, your clamps and tense body, your fears and shadows. For what? For yourself.
You are unique and individual, recognize this in yourself with the “Visual Therapy” project. Start a process that involves both body and psyche. Be the one who manages to find your uniqueness!
Men
“Be the one who stands up and makes it happen.”
You are no longer satisfied with your life, you can’t figure out how to get to the next level. You feel that life doesn’t bring you joy, everything around you has become bland. You have created a business and seem to have saved up money, but something prevents you from going up further — so it’s time to change something! There are no weak men, there is a fear of pain, looking into the eyes of which is released strength. With the photos from the session, you can do just that. To get to the problem solving stage, sometimes taking a second look at yourself, highlighting your strengths. Learn to manage your state in crisis or stressful situations.
You are a unique and individual person, see it in yourself with the help of the project “Visual Therapy”. For what? To create a new you!

Project stylist: Antastasia Mazaeva
I am the person who will transform you beyond recognition, will reveal in you the woman you CAN BE, will show you how real you are. Style is about expressing the inner through the outer, but many people forget that, wearing only monochromatic looks with a hoodie and a leather jacket and endless jeans. I’m here to change the way you see and think about yourself!
Session dates
Sessions are held on weekends. Please book your time in advance. We talk to no more than three people on a single day. The process is painstaking, individualized and very finely tuned. We care about you!

About our project
Anastasia:
Honestly, I thought that therapy during the photo shoot would be something unreal for me. It is difficult for me to show emotions on camera, but it turned out that I dissolved in the process of therapy and forgot about the camera. It is very interesting to observe myself afterwards, how my body reflects exactly the problem I came with, and then to look at the behavior of the body when this problem is solved. It’s especially interesting to combine that with the image I was wearing from the stylist. I love fashion and here is such a combo: my condition was like an extension of the image, is that even realistic? 😂
I felt like myself in this image. Yes, it was unusual at first, but then it kind of dissolved into me and became a part of me. Sensitive photographer — I really didn’t notice Liana during the process and didn’t even think that I was getting such beautiful shots because I was talking all the time, but no, it was as if she stopped time and made such shots.Sveta! Thank you so much!
The problem I came with was tormenting me and thanks to you, I realized that actually the source of the solution comes from a completely different direction, not from where I thought🤯 it became a new way of movement for me.
I let go of the situation and it’s so much easier to move forward! Thank you девочки❤️
Daria:
It was a new experience for me. And I love new things. On the one hand, it’s a double stress. You have to get into the therapy and be under the camera.
It’s hard at first. But then you get involved, stop paying attention to the photographer and immerse yourself in the process.
It is always a pleasure to work with professionals! And the result is definitely worth it. I’ve always wanted to see myself from the outside and this session was a huge step towards understanding myself.
I am very grateful to all the participants who helped me to open up! In my opinion, everyone needs such a session!
Maria:
Sveta, thank you very much! The photographer Liana is very good-natured, airy, bright, with a disposing smile, very much energy that energizes! It is interesting how the stylist presented me.
The images are fire! Admires how a person sees, combines colors, textures, fabrics🌸. Sveta, you are a true professional! It’s a pleasure to have a conversation with you, of course it’s hard to answer questions primarily to yourself, but you guide so gently and smoothly. Your smile, beautiful face, the timbre of your voice help to relax and calm down a little. There is a storm of emotions in my soul right now. I even cried a little) thank you, again! 😘😘🤗🌸🌸🌸
Alena:
You’re being filmed! Smile…
Oh… Are you crying? Or…are you angry!
Oh…wow! Anyway!
You’re being filmed!!! 😌In a gray, frosty autumn, after you’ve properly maximized your sadness, moped and decidedly felt sorry for yourself poor and miserable (😬), calling the week’s sadness with the trendy word “dEpression”, there comes the desire to already bring something bright and unusual into your languid life).
So my inner narcissist, not thinking long, trembled at the opportunity to participate in a new project and rushed in a bright suit and tights in a huge net to Svetlana and Liana)When I received an offer to conduct a session with a psychologist on camera, the first thing I thought was: “Oh my God! I’m going to be just like a guest star!” (No one canceled honesty here, right? 😬😇)I already know myself quite well) thanks to Svetlana, I found most of myself for a year), but I wondered how my body “speaks” in moments of emotion. Visual phototherapy allowed me to fulfill the main super task: to see how my psyche will react to the presence of a third person in front of the lens. I am satisfied with the result!
Two charming professionals help the client to open up in a new way and look at themselves from different angles and it’s interesting! I can only share a positive review about Svetlana and Liana’s new project. Their symbiosis is what allows your body to dance a crazy tango with its emotions and laugh, cry, worry, get angry into the abyss of your soul and nothing will happen to you for it! No one will judge you or give you a grade. Isn’t that what everyone dreams of — just to be yourself and be accepted!)
… And the main thing is to see it not through the eyes of a psychologist or a photographer!
But to see myself with the most native eyes — yours!
Thank you for the opportunity to try a new self! Success to the project and their creators ❤️
With love, Deficient Narcissist in Therapy

Oksana:
“I have always tried to avoid being photographed — I was sure that I was not photogenic, that I turned out disgusting in the photo, no matter how I made up, and that it was not for me. During the shooting I was at first a mixture of shyness, discomfort from an unfamiliar image, uncertainty and suddenly — relaxation and a feeling of complete freedom and happiness, which remained for a long time after the shooting. The next day I had a great desire to change my image, to become the one who appeared in the photo.
