I am a psychologist and cognitive-behavioural therapist. I received my master's degree in psychology at the Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznan and completed a 4 year scholarship in cognitive-behavioural therapy in Krakow. I provide therapy and counselling for adults and teenagers.
I have been working with both individuals and groups with a variety of difficulties. I did an internship in an Adult Psychiatric Outpatient Clinic in Poznan (Poznanski Osrodek Zdrowia Psychicznego). For two years I worked as a psychologist and therapist in Psychiatric Outpatient Services in Ostrów Wielkopolski: in a Psychiatric Day Treatment centre and a Mental Health Clinic (Psychiatryczny Oddział Dzienny and Poradnia Zdrowia Psychicznego in Przychodnia Multimed). In 2012 I also started a private practice.
Currently, I work in Outpatient Mental Health Clinic Centrum Ikar in Wrocław as a therapist for groups and individuals.
I also worked for 4 years in the non-governmental organisation Fundacja Praesterno, which focuses on supporting adolescents. I did counselling with teenagers and parents, both one to one and in group therapy.
I am a member of The Polish Association for Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (Polskie Towarzystwo Terapii Poznawczo-Behawioralnej), my work is regularly supervised.
I specialise in the following areas:
- anxiety disorders (i.e. panic attacks, general anxiety, health anxiety, OCD)
- coping with stress and managing the physiological symptoms of stress
- depression, insomnia, low self-esteem
- interpersonal problems (difficulties in relationships)
- eating disorders (anorexia, bulimia, binge eating)
Besides coping with problems, I find the process of working with clients in a relaxed yet professional environment very rewarding.
