I believe that experiencing a therapeutic relationship based on respect, openness and authenticity has the power to restore a person’s natural ability to self-regulate and heal. With my presence, experience and knowledge, I support people in creating a better everyday life. I am a Gestalt psychotherapist undergoing training at the Gestalt Institute in Zabierzów, a unit accredited by EAGT. I am also an accredited ICF (International Coaching Federation) coach and Gallup talent coach.
I subject my psychotherapeutic work to constant supervision. I am constantly learning in courses on working with trauma (Somatic Experiencing, Compassionate Inquiry), interpersonal neurobiology and neuroscience, as well as in programs based on psychotherapy modalities other than Gestalt (RTZ – rational behavior therapy, ACT – Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Schema Therapy). I completed postgraduate studies in psychodietics and social psychology at SWPS University. I invite people who they struggle with loneliness or problems in relationships, they go through various types of life crises, they have experienced complex trauma, they suffer mentally, emotionally and somatically.

I am a psychologist and psychotherapist, currently participating in psychotherapy training at the Krakow Psychodynamic Center, recommended by the Polish Psychological Association and the Polish Society for Psychodynamic Psychotherapy. I gained my professional experience through numerous internships, including. in the wards of the University Hospital in Cracow, as well as through cooperation with the Therapeutic Center “Rozkwit” in Cracow.
Aiming to ensure the highest quality of work, I regularly undergo supervision by certified supervisors. I also attend scientific conferences, trainings and courses in psychotherapy and psychology to constantly improve my qualifications.
In my psychotherapeutic practice focused on individual therapy for adults, I rely on the psychodynamic approach. This approach makes it possible to explore internal, often unconscious conflicts and needs, as well as to discover the mechanisms of functioning that often make life difficult.
I specialize in helping people struggling with personality disorders, using the TFP method dedicated to this issue. In addition, I also deal with anxiety disorders, mood disorders and interpersonal relationship difficulties.
My main goal is to support patients in overcoming these difficulties and achieving better well-being.
