Practice description

I use an integrative approach, using different modalities including Person Centered and Humanistic, to provide holistic help.

I work with adults and families. I am bilingual, working in English and Polish.

In the current uneasy domestic economic situation and uncertainties affecting the world, isolation or stresses are being experienced by people much more widely and intensively. Historic emotional issues are often intensified and new problems arise. Often difficulties experienced for a prolonged time can also lead to somatic problems. Sadly, there is still an unjustified stigma attached to those requesting psychotherapy. I believe, however, that investing in mental health is as important as in physical.

Often people believe psychotherapy is something not needed by older people as it is thought too late to change and the problems faced in 鈥渙ld age鈥� are best solved with medication. I don鈥檛 agree and am very interested in working with older adults.

My practice is age, race, faith and LGBTQ affirmative.
