About me
Hello, I am a graduate of the Gestalt Centre and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
At the heart of my work is exploring who we are, what we do, and why we do it—and whether these things support us in becoming the person we want to be. While people come to counselling with a wide range of concerns, I often finds myself working with those navigating life transitions, feeling stuck, or experiencing a sense of dissatisfaction with their lives.
I believe counselling should be both supportive and challenging. Support without challenge can leave us where we are; challenge without support can feel overwhelming. My aim is to offer both in a way that helps clients grow while feeling understood and accepted.
I practise in both English and Polish. I offer a free 30-minute introductory session and a sliding-scale fee based on clients' income.

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.

Further information
I believe that the chemistry between the client and the counsellor is crucial for therapeutic work. For that reason, I offer a free 30-minute online session. It's an opportunity for you and me to meet and discuss a potential work together
