Mag. Zoya Mesaric is a psychoanalyst, executive coach, speaker, and writer working internationally, based between Vienna and Lisbon.

Her work begins where things don’t shift, despite therapy, coaching, achievement, or personal effort.

Primary, she works with founders, executives, professionals, creatives, and high-functioning individuals who function at a high level, yet find themselves repeating patterns they cannot fully explain or resolve—in relationships, identity, performance, or decision-making.

Externally successful. Carrying something that hasn’t moved.

Her work spans situations of significant psychological intensity, from individuals navigating trauma, loss, addiction, and major life transitions, to leaders operating under sustained pressure, complex responsibility, and high-stakes decision-making.

Often, these experiences are more closely connected than they first appear.

The work integrates psychoanalytic depth, trauma understanding, somatic insight,and strategic thinking—translating internal patterns into meaningful psychological and real-world change.

Her clinical formation includes forensic psychiatric work and long-term psychoanalytic practice across international settings.

She has worked in the field for over a decade, maintaining an international private practice in English, Slovenian, Croatian/Serbian, and Spanish.

Her work has been presented at the World Congress for Psychotherapy (2025), where she introduced an integrative model on trauma recovery that bridges psychoanalytic theory and somatic practice.

She writes for ELLE Slovenia on identity, sexuality, grief, ambition, and the psychological realities of contemporary life.
