About me
You might look like you're coping on the outside, while inside you’re anxious, overwhelmed or questioning many things in life or about yourself. Perhaps you’ve become used to putting other people first, overthinking things, or trying to meet others’ expectations, and you’re wondering why things still don’t feel right.
Therapy is a process allowing a person to become grounded in their experiences while gaining a deeper understanding of themselves. Greater clarity helps you recognise unhelpful patterns in your life, make space for change, and improve relationships with others and yourself. Importantly, therapy can develop your ability to make choices aligning with your personal values, address the impact of past experiences, and minimise the influence of external factors.
Being born and raised in Poland, whilst spending most of my adult life in the UK, allows me to bring a perspective shaped by both professional training and my own background. Such an experience made me sensitive to subtle cultural moulds, paying attention to conditions imposed on us by people in our lives and society.
Training, qualifications & experience
Qualifications:
- Certificate in Online and Telephone Counselling
- MSc Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy
- BSc Psychology (with Honours)
As an integrative psychotherapist, I am motivated to understand your unique experiences, utilising tools across three modalities which facilitate an individualised approach towards the issues you choose to share.
- Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy: When it feels helpful, we’ll look at a connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, developing practical ways of managing what you’re experiencing.
- Person-Centred Approach: Allows you to feel that you can be yourself in therapy without having to perform or get things ‘right’, with a strong focus on your needs and connection with the true self.
- Attachment Style Theory: We can explore how earlier relationships and experiences may have shaped the way you relate to yourself and others today.
Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
