Doctor Trofimova had only Skype sessions with me but they were more helpful as in-person sessions with our company's social worker. She started from reviewing my medical problems and it made a lot of sense at the end, to connect it to my anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. I see now how important it is to know physiology to fix my psychological problems. I was glad that it wasn't just "abstract talks" but more detailed look at my life.
