About me
Hi, I'm Anna, I am friendly, calm, personable and down to earth and I am committed to building a relationship with you that allows you to be open, honest and feel safe enough to explore yourself, your world and your problems.
You may not have anyone you feel you can talk to, or maybe you do but they don’t understand you. I am experienced in offering psychological support and assessment to individuals who experience mental health issues. I create a safe space for each of my clients - a strong relationship is the core of effective therapy!
I'm trained both as a clinical and counselling psychologist.
This means that my approach is slightly different from others, as I use a range of tools and knowledge from different sources. Counselling skills are helping me to understand you better and use a variety of therapeutic forms. Whereas clinical experience gives me an opportunity to explain to you in simple words any possible medical problems that you might be suffering from.
I offer an unique blend of clinical and counselling techniques to support you on your journey towards emotional well-being. I work online. With years of experience working with people, I help many
to heal from childhood trauma and neglect, PTSD and complex PTSD, overcome difficulties in relationships (including emotional abuse, narcissistic partners, betrayal, or micro-cheating) and burnout, anxiety, and depression — often linked to long-term emotional stress.
I am also passionate about perinatal mental health and for more than a year I was a volunteer with Juno PMHS Edinburgh to provide support to mothers during the challenging transition to parenthood. As a parent myself, I understand the importance of providing a safe and supportive environment for mothers and fathers. I am committed to breaking down stigma surrounding mental health and providing compassionate care to those struggling with anxiety, depression, body image issues and trauma.
I speak English and Polish.
Through a combination of Psychodynamic, CBT, and third-wave techniques, I tailor therapy to meet your specific needs, providing a range of tools to support your growth and healing.
In addition to my clinical work, I am actively involved in research and professional development. I collaborate with non-profit organisations such as "Otwarte Szafy" (Open Closets), where I was leading a team of psychologists working to support LGBT and individuals experiencing family rejection.
In addition to my clinical and volunteer work, I am a published author, contributing articles to leading psychological magazines in Poland such as "Characters" and "Psychology in Practice." My articles focus on evidence-based therapeutic tools and innovative approaches to treating mental health disorders, reflecting my commitment to advancing the field of psychology.
I am dedicated to helping you regain your inner resilience and guiding you through your emotional pain.
Please contact me to book an initial free of charge 15-min call to see if I’m the right person for you.
We'll talk about what you want to get out of our work together and if you are happy to continue, I'll set up a session and arrange to see you. Don't be afraid to reach out and ask me anything - I'm here to help.
