Mgr Kristin Jurkowski

Clinical Mental Health Counselor

“I am an American psychotherapist, living in Kraków since 2019, specializing in helping adults with anxiety, depression, and relational trauma.”

About Me

As an American psychotherapist in Kraków, I help adults navigate anxiety, depression, and relational trauma. Since 2019, I've offered a supportive space where your experiences are deeply heard. We work collaboratively to process past hurts and explore difficult emotions. This empathetic approach is ideal for those seeking clarity and resilience amidst life's challenges.

Approach

Since moving to Kraków, my sessions are steady and collaborative, balancing curiosity with practical steps. I offer English-language meetings in person and online, with predictable pacing, brief agenda-setting, and regular check-ins so you always know our focus. We map patterns that fuel anxiety or low mood, gently experiment with new relational responses, and use short between-session practices to build momentum and insight. This approach tends to suit adults seeking thoughtful, down-to-earth change.
