Externally successful. Carrying something that hasn't moved.
Psychoanalysis & Executive Coaching
Wherever you are.
Zoya Mesaric, Mag. a. pth., 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.
She works with founders, executives, public figures, and individuals who are functioning at a high level — yet find themselves repeating patterns they cannot fully explain or resolve.
Her work often extends beyond the individual — to couples, families, and the companies they lead.
Her work spans significant psychological intensity: individuals navigating trauma, loss, addiction, and major life transitions; leaders operating under sustained pressure, complex responsibility, and high-stakes decisions.
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 and maintains a private practice in English, Slovenian, Serbo-Croatian, and Spanish.
Her work has been presented at the World Congress for Psychotherapy (2025), where she introduced an integrative model on complex 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.
