About me
I currently live in Warsaw, working in individual and group formats. I have experience working in a rehabilitation center with alcohol/drug/gambling addicts, as well as their relatives. I worked in a psychiatric dispensary with people with mental disorders. I collaborated with the Zigmund.Online platform. I study a lot and continuously, I have specializations in working with sexual problems, crises and traumas, group psychotherapy, ADHD coaching. I work with grief and loss, acceptance of diagnoses. I have a special interest in emotional intelligence, issues of self-worth, interpersonal relationships and separation. I work in the Gestalt approach, integrating CBT techniques, art therapy and other approaches depending on the needs and requests of the client. The peculiarity of the work will be the return of integrity by recognizing and accepting your emotions, thoughts, needs and choosing ways to implement them "here and now". The approach allows you to trace how you usually react to what happens to you and how you deal with your needs.

Approach
Working with a psychologist is like an investment in your present and future. Valuable experience in building relationships with reliable attachment. An opportunity to slow down and get out of the vicious circle of vanity. Live through emotional traumas, reconstructing them into stable supports. Determine your values and live your life taking into account your needs. I create an atmosphere of acceptance. With me, you will definitely not be hurt by devaluation and condemnation. You can contact me either with a ready-made request or form it directly during the meeting. In the process of work, requests can change depending on their relevance and what worries you most. I will listen carefully and ask questions in order to carefully provide you with the conditions for restoring contact with your feelings, body and needs, expanding the zone of your awareness. If appropriate, I will give homework that will facilitate and consolidate your changes. I work in a long-term therapy format with stable meetings once a week.
