Call 22 417 44 92About me
I work using a psychodynamic approach, which focuses on seeking a deep understanding of the unconscious processes that influence thoughts, emotions and the way we function. My starting point is to build a stable, trust-based therapeutic relationship, within which it becomes possible to gradually make sense of one’s inner feelings and experiences. Working with couples and families holds a special place in my practice – I am interested in what happens between people, in their mutual understanding but also in conflict, in tensions and in their interactions. In therapy, I support clients as they regain the ability to engage in dialogue, reflect and form more authentic relationships – both with others and with themselves.
Education and experience
I am a psychologist and psychotherapist with many years’ experience in clinical practice. I completed a comprehensive psychotherapy training programme in the psychodynamic approach at the Psychoeducation Laboratory, as well as a course in couples and family therapy. For 12 years, I was affiliated with the Mazovian Centre for Neuropsychiatry in Józefów, where I worked as a psychologist, psychotherapist and head of the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Ward. During this time, I developed my own therapeutic programme for young adults, tailored to their specific developmental needs. Alongside my work with patients, I am committed to my own professional development – I have completed hundreds of hours of personal therapy, supervision and specialist workshops.
