Bio
Psychologist, psychotherapist, psycho-oncologist and supervisor
Clinical work and qualifications
I am a psychologist (Ph.D. in Psychology, Faculty of Psychology, University of Warsaw), a psychotherapist (certificate from the European Association for Psychotherapy), a psycho-oncologist and a supervisor (certificate from the Polish Psycho-Oncology Society). My main areas of clinical interest include individual psychotherapy for adults, psycho-oncology, couple therapy and supervision.
I also serve as an ad hoc expert witness in psycho-oncology.
Education and psychodynamic psychotherapy training
I graduated from the Faculty of Psychology at the University of Warsaw and completed a four-year postgraduate training in psychodynamic psychotherapy at the Collegium Medicum of Jagiellonian University in Cracow. I also completed specialist training at the University of Warsaw in Couple and Family Therapy and in Supporting Personality Development.
I have completed several short-term trainings in sexual disorders, couple therapy, and Emotion-Focused Therapy, organized internationally by the Academy of IPOS. I continue to develop my therapeutic skills by taking part in congresses and trainings, both as a participant and as a speaker.
Academic, teaching and international experience
I am the Head of the Psychology in English Department, the Head of the Clinical Psychology MA Programme and an Assistant Professor at SWPS University in Warsaw. I am also a faculty member of trainings organised by the European School of Oncology (ESO) and the School of Medicine of the University of Warmia and Mazury.
I have gained clinical experience in many institutions in Poland, including the Cancer Center Institute in Warsaw, the Institute of Psychiatry and Neurology in Warsaw and Nowowiejski Hospital in Warsaw, as well as abroad, including Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, MD, USA, and the training team of the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York, NY, USA.
Professional memberships
I am a member of the American Psychological Association, the Polish Psychological Association, the Polish Psycho-Oncology Society and the Polish Society for Psychodynamic Psychotherapy.
Therapy areas and languages
In therapy, I am especially interested in themes such as abuse, personality disorders, closeness and intimacy in relationships, developing close relationships, relationship crises, personal crises, family issues, relationships between adult children and parents, creating close relationships in bicultural couples, and adaptation disorders in foreigners and expats studying or working in Poland.
I provide individual psychodynamic therapy. In couple therapy, I use psychodynamic and systemic approaches. My work is subject to clinical supervision. I provide therapy in English and Polish.
