Is it another Friday night and you feel lonely?
I do not believe that we are determined by our relationship status or in fact need to find “our second half” (eye roll) to be happy.
Yet, the research shows that loving relationships is the key factor for living a long and fulfilling life! Of course, it is not necessarily intimate relationships but also friendship, mentorship, social connections.
If you are someone, who WANTS to be with someone and build a healthy, positive relationship or may be you have already met someone special but there are repeated issues between you - join my new course!!!
Together we will explore some of the key concepts from couple therapy such as attachment and needs, relationship red flags, how to navigate conflict etc.
If you have any question please DM or leave a comment below 🙏
One of my proudest moment is when a friend of mine trusted me with coming out that he was gay. For many of you may be it is not a big deal and this is how it should be (even if I’m not a big fan of shoulds, in this case it is highly appropriate).
The thing is it happened over 25 years ago and it happened in Russia, not only a very conservative culture back then but also where being gay was a criminal offence! It is still punished and suppressed over there!
Since then I made more wonderful connections with LGBTI+ community and have dear friends and clients with whom we sat down and talked about options, fears, sense of freedom to be oneself!!!
Recently when talking to my child about same s*x marriages, I was touched to tears to hear: “Love is love. What’s the big deal, mom?”
Not a big deal, honey, EVERYONE has a right to be who they are, explore who they want to be and experience love and acceptance!!! You are absolutely right!!! I am so glad that for you it is absolutely normal!!!
Love, Nadia

We have just finished my new Happier You course. Every Thursday night these amazing women (and some who are not on the picture) would meet in the virtual space to discuss important topics like self-compassion, emotions, boundaries, destructive patterns, correlation between what we want and what we believe we deserve and much more.
They showed up consistently for themselves even if it was raining, they had work commitments, they were travelling or even 6 month pregnant 🤰
With such commitment to their growth and healing I believe there is only one possible future outcome for them - to feel happier and more fulfilled!!! I wish you all that from all my heart!
Thank you for teaching me so much as well!
Love, Nadia ❤️

At Freud & Coco we are passionate about helping women to feel comfortable in their own skin so you can unleash your true potential and lead a happy life. It’s not just about getting treatment or having a makeover, it’s about rediscovering and connecting with your whole self so you can achieve optimal well-being and flourish.
Freud & Coco is a boutique consulting and counselling service specialising in supported personal transformation. We provide counselling, styling, personal image consulting, life coaching, and psychoeducation. By combining these unique disciplines, we are able to help our clients get to the bottom of what’s holding them back, and equip them with the skills and tools so they can feel empowered, be more confident, have purpose based on their values, reach their full potential and live a happier life.
Our unique approach targets two main domains that comprise the Self: psychological and physical. We believe to be truly at ease with yourself, it’s important to look at your emotions and psychological patterns, identify your strengths, and discover and address any barriers or limiting beliefs that are preventing you to achieve that. We offer a non-judgemental, client-based counselling support around self-acceptance, romantic and family relationships, life transitions like divorce and “empty-nest syndrome”, life balance, ageing, health and psychosomatic symptomology and wellness.
Working through and healing emotional issues often leads to changes on the outer layer. In some cases, an image consulting session can be the first step on the road of self-discovery and, if or when the client is ready, deeper emotional work takes place. During our styling and personal image consulting sessions we help you to present yourself authentically to the world in a way that maximises your potential, corresponds to your goals and reflects who you truly are and your values.
Freud & Coco was founded by principal counsellor & image consultant Nadia Young. Freud & Coco was created when Nadia discovered that by combining psychology and styling advice, women feel much more supported, are more likely to address their limiting beliefs and achieve greater results.
Hello from Nadia Young
“I have been privileged to work with women throughout my career in a variety of roles, as an educator, stylist, image consultant and a neuropsychotherapy practitioner. Working in fashion for the likes of Louis Vuitton and as a creative director of a high-end jewellery brand, not only sharpened my eye for detail and taught me visual perception skills, it also highlighted the strong connection between our outer and inner worlds. Throughout client sessions I often I heard “I look horrible”, “I don’t like myself” comments that most of the times had very little truth from the objective point of view. Whose voice were they hearing? What prevented them from accepting their individual beauty and charm? I also worked with people who used compulsive shopping to fill the void and mask the pain they felt inside. People who put so much pressure on themselves to fit in by constant dieting and excessive exercising that it led to health complications. It was clear that deeper inner work had to take place in order to achieve maximum results and help clients to feel happy in their own skin.
My passion for psychology and neuroscience lead to post-graduate studies in these fields, which opened the way to the unique approach to counselling I provide to my clients. We achieve amazing results by combining the principles of neuroplasticity, evidence-based approaches in counselling like cognitive-behavioural therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, schema and narrative therapy, gestalt and emotional-freedom technique as well as integrating appearance transformation if necessary. Our clients report a higher level of life satisfaction and self-confidence. Often changes occur in many other areas of their life including romantic relationships, social life and work. I love helping women to get unstuck and guide them through this change. I look forward to helping you find a way to a happier you.”
