Polish Therapists in San Diego, CA
I help individuals and couples in California and Connecticut navigate intimacy concerns, low desire, sexual anxiety, relationship conflict, and the impact of trauma on sex, intimacy, and emotional connection. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling confused, stuck, or disconnected from their bodies or partners—and wanting something to change, even if they’re not sure where to start.

My passion in life is helping people heal from trauma and depression through warm, authentic, and professional care. Through my clinical training, I discovered that I have a natural talent for working with children and adolescents. I am fascinated by new technologies and like to incorporate them into treatment whenever it can help an individual live a healthier and more fulfilling life.

Our brains naturally seek certainty and don’t like the unknown. You may find comfort in order, predictability, or getting things just right. While these traits can be strengths, they may also signal Anxiety or OCD when doubt and responsibility begin to feel overwhelming. If you’re feeling stuck in cycles of anxious thoughts or compulsions, more fearful, or easily irritated, supportive, evidence-based care can help. I was born and raised in Poland and have called San Diego home since 2002. With BA and MSW degrees from SDSU and over a decade of experience, I specialize in treating OCD and Anxiety using CBT, ERP, I-CBT, ACT, and DBT.

Life’s ups and downs can feel overwhelming. Whether you’re facing unresolved pain, menopause transitions, intergenerational identity challenges, or body image concerns- healing is possible. Sometimes, we push through and get by, but over time, the weight of relationship challenges, life transitions, trauma or work, can become too much. Without a true sense of identity or belonging at different life stages, it’s even harder. Pretending everything is fine can be exhausting. Maybe you feel like you don’t fit in, or you are burnt out from carrying on. These experiences can leave you feeling anxious, drained, disconnected, and stuck.

As a therapist, I am rooted in a cognitive approach based on insight. However, I also incorporate a psychodynamic, humanistic-existential, and trauma-focused perspective in my work.

I aim to make our sessions inclusive and focused, while also bringing in some humor and lightness to enhance our therapeutic journey.

Whether you’ve faced overwhelming life events or been impacted by repetitive, ongoing emotional struggles, trauma can live in the body and subconscious mind—shaping patterns of anxiety, disconnection, or emotional numbness that can be hard to understand. If you experience anxiety, depression, relational challenges, PTSD, or feel stuck in repetitive behaviors or thought spirals, these may be signs of unresolved trauma. Healing begins by bringing gentle awareness to these inner wounds and working with them in a safe, compassionate way.

All meaningful lives involve pain, there is no escaping this. Even if we cannot avoid pain, we can learn to rise above it and still create a life worth living. Life will never be unbearable due to circumstances, but only from a lack of purpose and meaning. My job is to help you look at your situation differently, and to develop a committed action plan to make the positive changes you have been wanting to. Like the Serenity Prayer says, we need to accept the things we cannot change, and have courage to change what we can, starting with ourselves.
