Vision

Where we are heading

To become the leading professional platform for Ukrainian psychologists in the Slovak Republic and a trusted partner to public, educational, health, church and civic institutions in the fields of mental health, integration and social cohesion.

We are building a community grounded in professionalism, mutual support, international cooperation and service to others.

Values

What our work is built on

Five values and how they show in our work.

  • Empathy

    With colleagues and partners alike, we listen before we advise.

  • Pro­fes­sion­al­ism

    The professionals in our community share ethical principles and a willingness to keep learning, including from one another.

  • Support

    We help members find their way through Slovak legislation, the recognition of qualifications and the conditions for practice.

  • Cooperation

    We prepare events and projects together with schools, NGOs and foundations, because together we achieve more.

  • Respect

    Our members respect the boundaries of clients and colleagues: confidentiality, consent and the free choice of a professional.
