“Gestalt therapy is a therapy of contact. And, perhaps, it is one of my greatest values.
I believe in the power of every person. I believe that all of us have inner resources for growth and change, even when it seems that they are not enough.
My support is open to every step you are about to take on the path to change.
I know that Gestalt therapy helps a person to heal – to become whole, to find inner harmony and to live the life they would choose for themselves. From difficulties in relationships to psychosomatic illnesses, from traumatic experiences to the search for inner resources – I am here, ready to accompany you through these challenges, helping you find the answers that lie within you.
For me, Gestalt therapy is not only a process, it is a way of life, a way of seeing the world through the prism of contact and wholeness. It is one of my greatest values, which I deeply respect and feel within myself.”

Specialization “Bodymind Gestalt”
This program is a valuable resource for practicing psychotherapists and psychology students who are interested in body-oriented work, a developmental approach and the use of body awareness in the context of psychotherapy.
Problems in relationships with loved ones, partners or colleagues.
Psychotherapy will help you understand your personal reactions, change patterns of interaction, set healthy boundaries and find a way to resolve conflicts, improve communication and regain a sense of connection with a loved one.
Working with psychological trauma and acute stress reaction.
If you have noticed acute stress, feelings of anxiety, explosive emotional reactions, a worsening of mood, sleep and relationships, psychotherapy can help by understanding and processing traumatic experience, developing strategies to overcome negative reactions and improving your well-being and health.
If you experience inner conflict, self-criticism and difficulties with self-esteem, psychotherapy can help by increasing awareness of your own inner world, strengthening self-support, fostering a kind view of yourself and a conscious reliance on an adequate perception of yourself.
