Dr. Renate Ivanova.
Resident doctor in psychotherapy at the RSU Clinic of Psychosomatic Medicine and Psychotherapy.
While studying at the Faculty of Medicine at Riga Stradiņš University, Dr. Ivanova acquired the essential knowledge and skills required for a medical professional.
Her belief that physical symptoms are only part of an illness and her deep interest in understanding the inner emotional world of individuals led her to pursue a specialization in psychotherapy at the Faculty of Continuing Education. During her studies, she deepened her knowledge by participating in scientific research groups focused on psychotherapy, psychiatry, and rehabilitation, as well as volunteering at a regional psychiatric hospital. She has successfully presented at conferences in Latvia and abroad on emotional distress among students and attitudes toward psychotherapy.
She believes that psychotherapy benefits everyone—it allows individuals to truly get to know themselves, understand their relationships with others, and see the world from a new perspective, which can provide support in any life situation and at any age.
“Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart.
Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakens.”
