Welcome, and thank you for being here. I'm Hanna Pashnik, the writer and educator behind PatternsShift — a resource for people who want to understand the mechanics of their own behavior and actually change it.

My Background and Approach

My background is seventeen years of clinical psychotherapy practice across Eastern Europe, including as Head of the Psychotherapy Department and Deputy Chief of a Psychiatry and Psychotherapy Center. Later — an MBA in Psychology and Consulting. I have since stepped away from clinical practice to focus fully on writing and creating these tools.

Seventeen years of practice leave a particular kind of mark — you see not just what people do, but why their life keeps repeating the same script no matter how hard they try to change it.

Motivation-based solutions and one-size-fits-all advice don't work. Understanding the mechanics of your pattern is where it starts. What actually moves it is something harder: new action, conscious choice, and the willingness to take responsibility for both.

The work here draws from CBT, ACT, and schema therapy — written in language that doesn't require a clinical background to understand.
