About me

My work as a Counselling Psychologist and psychotherapist is based on the idea that change is possible, and if you are here, change is what you hope for. Therapy is a space to feel safe to share and to allow your feelings to be heard and understood. We will explore your problems and bring your challenges to the fore, imagining and creating a life where you are not only surviving but thriving.

I use integrative, psychodynamic, CBT and relational approaches where we look into the past to gain insight into the present.

I am a Counselling Psychologist and a lecturer in Counselling Psychology, and I have always balanced clinical work with academic responsibilities.

I practice counselling in English and Polish.

Training, qualifications & experience

I have completed Doctoral training in Counselling Psychology and Psychotherapy (Metanoia Institute). I am a member of UKCP, HCPC and BPS. I have a Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling and an MSc in Clinical Psychology. I provide supervision to other practitioners. My style of supervision is Integrative and Relational with a psychodynamic flavour.
