CBT Psychotherapist

verified by TherapyRoute

“I believe that effective therapy is a collaboration, not a lecture. My style is active, transparent, and grounded in science. I combine the practical, solution-focused tools of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) with the depth of Schema Therapy.”

About Me

How I can help you: I specialise in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Schema Therapy. My approach is practical and evidence-based. We will work together not just to relieve your current symptoms (like anxiety or low mood), but to identify and change the deep-rooted patterns ("schemas") that keep you stuck. LGBTQ+ & Gender Identity: Affirmative support for individuals exploring their identity. Non-Traditional Relationships: I provide knowledgeable, kink-aware, and polyamory-friendly counseling for individuals and partners in open relationships or CNM (Consensual Non-Monogamy). Anxiety & Panic: Practical tools to manage stress and regain control. Why work with me? No Waiting List: I usually offer appointments within 24-48 hours. Full Privacy: As a private practice, your diagnosis is not reported to insurance companies. Accessibility: I offer sessions online (secure video) I work fluently in English and Polish. Feel free to reach out to schedule an initial consultation to see if we are a good match.

Approach

How we will work together: Understanding the "Why": We will work to identify the root causes of your difficulties—whether they are current thought patterns (CBT) or emotional traps developed in childhood (Schemas). Practical Tools: You won't just talk; you will learn concrete strategies to manage anxiety, regulate emotions, and improve communication. Judgment-Free Zone: Central to my practice is creating a truly safe space for LGBTQ+ individuals and those in Non-Monogamous / Polyamorous relationships. I work from a sex-positive, affirmative perspective where your identity and lifestyle are respected, not pathologised. My goal is not to keep you in therapy forever, but to equip you with the skills to become your own therapist. I adhere to the ethical standards of the Polish Association for Cognitive and Behavioural Therapy (PTTPB).
