Currently I work as a psychologist and psychotherapist in Psychiatric Clinic in Katowice. I gained experience in Psychiatric Units and Outpatient Clinics in Silesian region as well as in Clinic of Pediatry and Children’s Oncology in Zabrze and Pediatric Clinic in Sosnowiec. I had my psychotherapeutic internship in The University Hospital in Cracow. I work with adults and teens in individual and group therapy. My work is regularly supervised in KCP (Cracovian Psychodynamic Center) which is a center for psychotherapy and training recommended by Polish Psychological Association.

In my work I use psychodynamic approach that enables me to treat each patient and his problem individually. Psychodynamic psychotherapy not only treats symptoms but also goes down to the source of the problems. That helps in preventing future recurrence of symptoms. Through getting aware of the unconscious mechanisms and emotions connected with them, patient can achieve long-term satisfactory effects and a great improvement in the quality of his life and relationships.
