I provide an open, warm and confidential space which enables clients to explore issues, which may have been difficult to deal with alone. I view therapy as an individual process and a journey of self discovery that create an opportunity to become aware of inner conflicts and unhelpful patterns of behaviour. I recognise that there is not one approach to therapy that will suit everyone. Hence, I incorporate integrative approach that means I can adapt therapy to each client and their individual needs. I can offer help and have worked with people struggling with a range of conditions including depression, anxiety or adjustment.

We believe that everyone is unique and therefore is dealt with in a way that best caters to his or her individual needs. We work with you by exploring your world to see how you engage with your life and the people around you. Along the journey, we will explore your past, look at your present and see how you perceive the future. We will help you become more aware of your values, beliefs and limitations and help you connect and improve your relationship with yourself. This process may be challenging, yet extremely rewarding as we access the changes you want to make towards living the life that you want to live.

If you're stuck in patterns that aren't working, struggling in relationships, feeling disconnected from yourself or others, or trying to make sense of something difficult, together we can work out what's happening, why, and how things can change. I work with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and the lasting effects of trauma. We explore what is keeping you stuck: patterns that repeat, the inner voices that shape how you see yourself, the roles you find yourself in, and ways of coping that may once have helped but now create problems. My approach is thoughtful and direct. I’ll challenge you and laugh with you.

You might be here because you're struggling with sadness, low self-esteem, relationship struggles or difficulty with intimacy. Perhaps you just have a feeling that something isn't right but you don't know what's wrong. I can work with you to create a time and space where we focus on exploring the forces in your life which have led you to where you are today, and which you hope to understand in order to reach somewhere new.

I work with couples and indiviuals. Often past experiences, unconscious thoughts and conflicting inner forces can affect our mental well-being in a negative way, causing symptoms such as stress, anxiety, detachment or depression. Through exploring patterns of thought, feelings and relationships, we can understand and resolve these issues leading to greater self-awareness, personal growth and change. Together we will speak freely about whatever comes to mind with the aim of addressing defences and removing blockages that may have developed over time and are hindering your ability to feel whole and lead a fulfilling life.

Hi. I’m Mirek. Some people seek help because they experience a variety of emotional challenges (e.g. depression, anxiety, addictive tendencies, issues within relationships, unhelpful patterns of relating, and they want to feel better. Counselling and psychotherapy can help with it, but most importantly it can help with changing internal landscapes so that we then better understand how we function and have an idea where our troubles come from. Knowing that it is then easier to manage ourselves with anything that live throws at us. There is nothing better than a sense of freedom from old unhealthy patterns of relating!

You might feel stuck in patterns that you can't seem to break free of, or have difficulty connecting with other people, or feeling true intimacy. You might have been putting on a 'mask' to go out to work and function in the world, but underneath are living with pain in various forms: depression, anxiety, grief or anger. If you feel motivated to make changes but don't know where to start, then psychotherapy might be right for you. With time, as you start to feel safe enough to talk in depth about the things that have been troubling you, therapy can become a very real relationship of trust and openness.

Some come with clear difficulties, while others have a sense that something isn’t quite right.

The work aims to ease distress while helping you develop greater insight, feel more grounded, and live in a way that feels more aligned and meaningful to you.

You may experience anxiety, anger, depression, relationship and sexuality difficulties, addictive behavior. Talking therapy helps to understand our emotions so that we can identify and manage negative feelings or unwanted habits. In Therapy we can explore present and past events to identify the relation between the present emotions and the early life experiences. By understanding how childhood experiences affect our emotions and behavior as adults, it is possible to understand the ourselves as we are now.

I help men who sense that something isn't quite right with sex, desire or intimacy — and aren't sure where to turn. Perhaps sex has become a source of stress rather than pleasure, or desire has faded and it's creating distance in your relationship. Maybe you're dealing with erection difficulties, questions about your sexuality, or worries about porn. Whatever has brought you here, I'm here to help.

We all walk our individual paths, and throughout life, challenges arise that can leave us feeling disconnected, lost, ashamed and more. These difficulties shape who we are, how we interact with others and our reality. Through this, we may develop patterns of behaviour as a means of survival from traumatic experiences and suppressed emotions, these can limit our sense of self and expression.

Essentially, counselling and psychotherapy offers us an opportunity to learn about ourselves. And none more so than when faced with the emotional challenges that are often part of everyday life. At these times we may feel on our own, stuck and unsure of which way to turn. It may also be difficult to find someone we can trust and who will understand, or, in such a busy world, someone who has the time to listen. This is when a counsellor or a psychotherapist can help. I offer a calm, caring, safe, respectful and confidential space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings.
