About Me
My name is Oksana Sivkovich Fagin.
I hold a PhD in Cognitive Psychology with a focus on the mechanisms of hypnosis. I have conducted research on hypnosis and have published and presented my findings at various conferences.
I am a member of the Society for Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis (SCEH), the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis (ASCH), and the International Society of Hypnosis (ISH).
For the past 12 years, I have been working with people using hypnosis as a tool.
In addition to my private practice, I serve as a faculty member in the Psychology Department at the Borough of Manhattan Community College (CUNY). There, I teach courses in Cognitive Psychology, Research Methods, and Behavioral Statistics. I also direct a Neuropsychology Laboratory, where I mentor students in conducting neuroscience-based research utilizing EEG techniques.

In this episode, I talk with Tsahi Shemesh, who is a Krav Maga instructor for 35 years, about the connection between psychology and physical training. We discuss healing, resilience, and how experiences on the training mat relate to therapy and personal growth.
