Since the new year, the format of the meetings of the psychologist of the Fund "Sukhumi" has changed. She no longer holds monthly group meetings in the Women Support Centers, and she comes to the regions in case of necessity.

In February, individual meetings were held at the request of Poti and Khurcha / Koki Women's Support Centers (Zugdidi Municipality). The work was carried out with women to resolve personal psychological problems. After the first session, the beneficiaries have already felt relief, agreed to work through skype and telephone counseling. Despite some positive results, individual work continues.
