Mgr. Iva Kokoška M.A.
I offer you my services as an individual and couple counselor, my office is situated in Prague. I specialize in personal growth, relationships and psychosomatics.
I used to be a lawyer but I wasn't getting enough satisfaction in that line of work, I kept caring more about personal relationships and everyone's well- being than the precise wording of legal contracts. I developed psychosomatic problems and came to a point in my life where I felt I had to make a big change to be happy again. I started studying psychology with the goal of becoming a counselor. Waking up after many years of lethargy felt really good, I found out. My psychosomatic problems disappeared.
Now I want to help you find yourself, your true sense of life, what you like and what makes you happy. I want to help you to get rid of your psychosomatic problems, anxieties, unhappy mornings when you go to work which you no longer enjoy or you wake up next to someone who you have no feelings for anymore. I was there as well and I will stay always emphatically on your side, of your life happiness and fulfillment.
