You may appear to function well on the outside and still feel disconnected, overwhelmed, lonely, or uncertain about who you are. Perhaps you find yourself repeating painful relationship patterns, struggling with depression or anxiety, feeling emotionally stuck, or sensing that something important in your life no longer fits. Life transitions—changes in relationships, family roles, work, loss, immigration, or shifts in identity—can bring challenges that are difficult to understand alone.
I offer psychoanalytic psychotherapy for adults and couples seeking deeper understanding and lasting change. Together we explore emotional patterns, relationships, and experiences that shape your life. Therapy can help bring unconscious patterns into awareness and create greater freedom, connection, and a stronger sense of self.
As a psychoanalytically trained therapist, I offer psychotherapy in English & Polish with warmth and curiosity, attending to each person’s unique experience. I work with individuals navigating relationships, identity, belonging, and life transitions.Therapy in one’s native language can support deeper reflection. I welcome you to reach out for a consultation.
