Barbara Lehwark

Hello, I’m a Cognitive-Behavioural Therapist certified by both the Polish and European Associations for CBT (PTTPB, EABCT). I’ve been working as a therapist for over 15 years, supporting adults from many walks of life – people navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, ADHD, self-doubt, or simply moments when life feels overwhelming or directionless. What matters most to me in therapy is that you feel seen, heard, and understood — exactly as you are. My role isn’t to judge or tell you who you should be, but to help you discover what you need, what feels right for you, and how to move toward a life that feels more aligned and peaceful. I know that change isn’t easy — and it’s not something we can just “decide” to do. It’s a process, often messy, emotional, and full of uncertainty. I’ve been through my own share of crises and transitions, and I know that having someone who truly listens and stays with you through it can make all the difference. That’s what I aim to offer: a grounded, warm presence and a space where you don’t have to have it all figured out. As a neurodivergent person myself, I also have personal insight into living with ADHD — what it’s like when your mind works a bit differently, and how to make that difference work for you rather than against you. Supporting clients with ADHD and other forms of neurodiversity has become a particularly meaningful part of my work. Beyond my work as a therapist, I’m passionate about the sea — I’ve spent many years sailing, even serving as an officer aboard Polish tall ships. It taught me a lot about teamwork, leadership, and how people grow through both calm waters and storms. At home, I share my life with my dog, Roomba, who gently reminds me to slow down and enjoy the small things.
