About me

In my work as a psychologist and psychotherapist, I place the greatest emphasis on genuine connection with others, openness and understanding their individual perspective. I believe in viewing psychological difficulties not only through the lens of symptoms, but also through the prism of life history, relationships and experiences that shape the way we think and experience emotions. I believe that the therapeutic process is a collaborative endeavour, in which both reflection and the exploration of one’s own needs, as well as the search for concrete opportunities for change, play an important role. I am committed to creating a space where you can speak freely about your difficulties, gain a better understanding of yourself and gradually build a life in line with your own values.

Education and experience

I am a graduate of psychology, specialising in clinical psychology and psychotherapy, from Vizja University in Warsaw. I have also completed a two-year teacher training programme, and developed my psychotherapeutic skills through a four-year course in cognitive-behavioural psychotherapy at the CBT Centre. I have been gaining professional experience since 2020, working with both young people and adults. I have worked, amongst other places, at the Clinic of Developmental Psychiatry at the University Clinical Centre of the Medical University of Warsaw (UCK WUM), as a court-appointed social worker, the Youth Sociotherapy Centre, and served as the leader/coordinator of the Community Psychological and Psychotherapeutic Care Centre and the Mental Health Clinic Team, combining clinical work with the management of a team of specialists. My practice encompasses psychological assessment, individual and group psychotherapy, and supporting people experiencing a range of emotional and mental health difficulties. I regularly expand my knowledge by attending training courses and refining my therapeutic skills.
