Call 22 417 44 92About me
For me, the work of a couples and family therapist is, above all, about paying close attention to how each person in the consultation room experiences and describes themselves in relation to others. It also involves a constant curiosity about the multitude of perspectives, stories and meanings that weave together into a unique – though sometimes difficult to articulate – narrative of a family or partnership. Finally, it involves a range of moving moments when shared fears and longings emerge from misunderstandings or conflicts, and talking about them becomes the start of change.
My theoretical framework is based on a systemic approach, which emphasises the importance of the subtle interdependencies between partners or family members, and the psychodynamic approach, which encourages us to seek out the sources of difficulties – but also sources of strength – in our early childhood experiences.
Education and experience
I graduated from the Faculty of Psychology at the University of Warsaw (specialising in clinical child and family psychology) and completed a four-year comprehensive training programme in systemic therapy at the OPTA Association’s Family Therapy College. Since then, I have regularly attended workshops, conferences and seminars focusing on working with families and couples. I am a member of the Polish Psychological Association.
I gained my professional experience primarily at the Specialist Family Counselling Centre, where I worked with children and their parents for 10 years. I conducted couples’ and family therapy, as well as workshops and training courses.
