About
Dr. Tetyana Symkina brings rare understanding to the psychological complexity of significant life transitions.
With medical training from Israel and Ukraine and clinical experience since 2018, she works with individuals facing issues most practitioners never encounter: profound isolation following status changes, identity questions after meaningful success, and family dynamics in particularly sensitive contexts.
Her approach combines professional empathy with comprehension of the contexts in which certain individuals operate. She works with post-exit entrepreneurs, those who have received significant responsibility suddenly, and people managing decisions with unusually broad implications.
Beyond her specialization in the psychology of meaningful transitions, Dr. Symkina focuses on collective trauma, particularly in the context of October 7th events, and works with individuals who need to maintain high functioning while managing personal crisis.
Treatment is absolutely discreet, with availability for urgent appointments.

Q&A
I work with individuals facing challenges that require deep understanding of complex contexts.
Typically these are people at significant turning points: following major business success, after receiving substantial family or financial responsibility, or when managing decisions with broad implications.
I accept patients of all ages above childhood.
I work entirely privately. This enables a level of discretion and privacy that cannot be achieved working within institutional frameworks.
Clients may request reimbursement from private insurance if their policy covers psychiatric treatment, but there is no involvement of external systems in the treatment itself.
I offer sessions in various formats according to preference and need.
In-person sessions occur in a private space in Tel Aviv.
The exact location is communicated personally.
Online sessions are available through a secure platform, particularly suitable for international clients or those who prefer complete flexibility.
Dr. Symkina travels to selected international locations.
Conducts secure online consultations globally. Engagement remains completely private regardless of session location.
Yes. I understand that crises don't always occur at convenient times.
Next-day appointments can be scheduled in urgent situations, subject to availability. Sessions outside regular working hours are available with advance coordination.
Privacy is a core value in my work.
I operate entirely privately, without institutional involvement. Communications are secure, and information remains absolutely confidential. I understand that for certain individuals, discretion isn't merely a preference - it's an essential requirement.
I work with people whose contexts are uniquely complex. This requires understanding different from conventional treatment.
I combine comprehension of distinctive dynamics with professional psychiatric approach. Additionally, I specialize in work with collective trauma in the Israeli context, particularly October 7th events, and understand how to work with individuals who need to maintain high functioning while managing personal crisis.
As a psychiatrist, I am licensed to prescribe medication when appropriate.
The approach is balanced and careful, based on comprehensive assessment. I discuss all options and considerations before making decisions, with full respect for your personal preferences and needs.
