Expert in mental health and psychosocial support, researcher and adolescent psychologist with 25 years of experience in youth prevention, public health policy, and social research. My career covers field research and methodological developments in child protection for both domestic and international organizations (WHO, UNICEF, UNODC). Also, experience in administrative work on resource support for psychological services in the country (Federal Resource Center for Psychological Service in Education (RAO), FSBI "Center for Protection of Children's Rights and Interests" · Moscow). At the same time, I consider my work as a practicing psychologist, including in educational organizations (HSE University - St. Petersburg, Sirius Educational Center · Sochi), as the basis of my career.
The Prevention AI platform has become the embodiment of all my professional experience, made possible largely due to the emergence of artificial intelligence capabilities today: both for developing this platform and for creating the most advanced working tools for ordinary specialists.
Prevention AI is my personal project, not affiliated with any organizations or anyone's funding. It will constantly develop in dialogue with its users and the professional community. You can always become a part of it: I will be glad to communicate, help in fixing bugs, and proposals for the platform's development.
