I’m Nikolay Teimurazov
To me, the most natural and fascinating thing in the world is the human mind. Whenever I take something seriously, a childlike curiosity wakes up in me: “What’s inside?”. That same curiosity is what led me to become a psychologist. I’m driven to learn, explore, notice patterns, and develop the mind — my own and beyond.
Who I am today
Today I work as:
• a psychologist (I use different approaches, with ACT / Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as the foundation)
• a coach (goal-setting and the discipline that helps you reach them)
• a facilitator of my own practices (lucid dreaming, psychological games, research)
My approach
The foundation of my work is responsibility. First and foremost, I try to look at things consciously, from an adult perspective: calm, honest, and to the point. As a specialist who has gone through an academic path, I understand the challenges of modern psychology well. As the topic has become more popular, quality has noticeably declined, and the focus is often shifted to secondary things.
What matters to me:
• evidence-based methods and critical thinking.
• respect for a person’s boundaries and pace.
• an honest, lively dialogue without “proper roles”.
• well-directed effort — without fanaticism.
My path
Beyond work
I actively work out
I’m active in sports and believe the mind and body are connected far more deeply than people tend to think. When you develop one, you inevitably influence the other — and vice versa. In sports, I have a few goals: health, channeling energy, and confidence in my own strength.
Sometimes I let myself play
Games are a separate world for me. It’s useful to step out of everyday life from time to time and immerse yourself in another reality. I respect the creativity of people who make high-quality games with taste.
I enjoy developing informal logic
Since childhood, I’ve loved riddles and puzzles. I like the feeling when you don’t have the answer yet, but you know for sure it can be found if you try. I’m genuinely drawn to the tension of thinking — when you have to test possibilities and discover new patterns.
I listen to nature
For me, listening to nature is almost the same as listening to myself. It’s often boring, but I believe that after boredom, truth begins to open up: real thoughts and feelings — what has always been inside us, but what we don’t have time to notice because of multitasking.
