I'm an Integrative Counsellor, a registered member of BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and an accredited member of NCPS (The National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society).​​​​​​​​​

​

My approach

 

As an Integrative Counsellor, I draw from a range of therapeutic approaches to create a personalised plan that best supports your unique needs. This may include elements from Psychodynamic Therapy, Attachment Theory, Neuroscience, CBT, Creative Therapy, and IFS.

​

While these terms might sound confusing to you, what matters most is that we will work together to provide a holistic and tailored approach to your growth and healing journey. A key part of this process is the therapeutic relationship we build, where trust, empathy, and understanding form the foundation for our work together.

​

My experience

​

I have experience working with people of all ages and diverse multicultural backgrounds who may feel anxious, lost, or disconnected, including those who are neurodivergent or have experienced trauma.

Additionally, my personal experience navigating different countries and cultures gives me a deeper understanding of the complexities that can come with adjusting to new environments and navigating challenges related to identity and belonging​

​

In addition to my private practice, I've been volunteering as a bereavement counsellor at St. Michael's Hospice (St Leonards on Sea) between 2022-2025. This experience has provided me with specialised training and a deep understanding of grief, loss and its complexities. 

​

Before becoming a therapist, I worked in the creative industry and ran my own business. This experience gives me a deep understanding of the unique challenges creatives face. From managing stress and burnout to balancing artistic passion with business demands, I can relate to the pressures that come with creative work.​

​​​

I am bilingual and can provide therapy in both English and Polish.

​​​​​​

In my free time, I explore creativity in many forms, through art, music, film, reading, traveling, and spending time in nature. These experiences keep me grounded and connected, both in my personal life and in my work as a therapist.
