Anna Grudzien

I practice a psychoanalytic approach with a strong influence from Lacanian theory, which views the unconscious as structured like a language. This perspective allows us to explore how personal narratives, unconscious desires, and symbolic structures shape our experiences. In therapy, I work with clients through free association, careful listening, and interpretation to help them uncover hidden aspects of their psyche. My role is not to offer ready-made solutions but to guide individuals toward deeper self-understanding, greater emotional freedom, and meaningful change. Each therapeutic journey is unique, and I tailor my approach to the specific needs and concerns of my clients.
