About
To help people to find more freedom, meaning and happiness in their lives is my greatest dedication and my deepest commitment.
Dr. Elena Phillips
I studied Clinical Psychology (M.A.), Political Science (M.A.), and Computer Science (M.A.) at the University of Hamburg, Universidad de Alicante, and International Psychoanalytic University Berlin. As a researcher at the University of Hamburg, I dedicated myself to studies about digital technologies in psychotherapy - Digital Mental Health. Currently, I work as a coach, therapist and professor for Digital Health at the International University. I live with my family and practice in German, English, and Russian in Hamburg, Germany.
My therapy approach is based on the following post-graduate trainings:
EXISTENTIAL THERAPY: Three years postgraduate psychotherapeutic training in meaning-centered therapy based on Viktor Frankl's Logotherapy & Existential Analysis at the Institut für Logotherapie und Existenzanalyse Hamburg – Bergedorf, Germany.
PSYCHOANALYTIC THERAPY ON NARCISSISTIC AND BORDERLINE PERSONALITY DISORDERS: Two years postgraduate psychoanalytic psychotherapy training on narcissistic and borderline personality disorders at The International Masterson Institute, New York, USA.
BUDDHIST PHILOSOPHY & MEDITATION: Three years of studies of Buddhist philosophy, ethics and meditation techniques at the Tibet Center Hamburg e.V. under the patronage of His Holiness the XIV. Dalai Lama.
