Ing. Bc. Michaela Jelínková

I am a graduate of addictology at the 1st Faculty of Medicine, Charles University. I help families, partners and other loved ones of those who are struggling with addictions. Together we look for ways to navigate a difficult situation, how to cope with the impact of addiction on the family, and how to strengthen healthy relationships and communication.

I offer in particular:

  • Addictological counseling for families.
    • communication skills training
    • psychoeducation
    • support in coping with everyday situations
    • motivational training
  • Support for parents of children at risk of addiction.
  • Couple counseling in the context of addiction.
    • understanding the impact of addiction on the relationship
    • joint search for a way to change
    • crisis management
  • Other one-off or longer-term interventions according to the needs of the family or couple.

Restoring healthy relationships

I focus on supporting the family system as a whole, including partnerships, with the aim of strengthening its ability to cope with the stress associated with addictions and to support the restoration of healthy relationships.

In my work, I build on a respectful and supportive approach. With families and couples, I look for ways to cope together with difficult situations related to addictions and how to activate their own strength for change.

Education and experience

I am a graduate of addictology at the 1st Faculty of Medicine, Charles University, where I continue my master's studies. I am participating in the Vážka psychotherapy training (focused on working with families, couples and individuals according to the Virginia Satir Growth Model) and I have experience from various addictological services, primary prevention and assisted contacts between parents and children in difficult life situations.

I have completed training in motivational interviewing and a Sandplaying course. I work within my competencies as an addictologist and under regular supervision.
