About me and my therapy practice

My approach integrates humanistic, body-mind, somatic, and trauma-informed approaches. "The body keeps the score" and is an integral part of the healing process. 

I’m a BACP-registered psychotherapist with roots in both Polish and English cultures, which I embrace for their unique qualities—Polish boldness and English empathy. These dual influences shape my approach to therapy: grounded, compassionate, and effective. 

Life has brought me challenges, from loss and grief to personal transformation. These experiences taught me resilience, the value of vulnerability, and the importance of balance—embracing both strength and sensitivity, yin and yang.

I’m passionate about people, art, music, and dance, and I bring creativity and humanism to my work. Whether you're facing a difficult time, seeking clarity and a solution, or simply looking for someone to listen, I’m here to walk with you on your journey.

During our first contact, a 15-minute consultation, I will offer more insight into my work and further information about my practice. We will have an opportunity to explore your needs and desired outcomes from counselling. 


Please allow 24 hours to respond to your inquiry. 


Practice description

In therapy, 

In therapy, creating a warm, empathetic environment and facilitating your autonomy is most important. Yet, I will share my experience and knowledge with you, and support your process holistically. Whatever it is, that you need the counselling space for, I will be emphatically guiding you, sometimes challenging, or be more direct (my Polish part ;). I have an appreciation for therapeutic humor which at times can help you stay grounded and in the present.  

It is important to mention, that I am experienced and well-educated, particularly in trauma and PTSD/CPTSD. It is a vast area, but my approach closely resonates with Gabor Mate, compassionate inquiry, Peter Levine, Bessel van Der Kolk, Babette Rothschild, and Christiane Sanderson. 

I am a counselling tutor and personal and professional group facilitator; I am also a sessional counsellor for organisations such as the Centre for Action for Rape and Abuse, Essex; Woman Aid UK, Cambridge Rape Crisis. 

Apart from my counselling practice, I facilitate dance and movement workshops and I am a soundbath practitioner.
