ABOUT ME
I was born in Poland but have lived in the UK nearly 30 years and now consider it home.
​
Working in the helping profession is my second career. I came to it after my life in a business setting. What I learnt along the way is the inevitability of change.
Along the way I have been in many roles as a friend, a mother, a partner, a wife and divorcee, experiencing many ups and downs in all of them. The people closest to me have made their mark on me and have been my biggest mentors and "tor-mentors" in life.
I have always been curious about what makes us - us and have a life-long passion for the exploration of the human potential.
​
Above all I appreciate the beauty and complexity of our multidimensional experience.
EXPERIENCE
I came to the helping profession later in life. I trained in Architecture, followed by a degree in Management and Business Administration (MBA), and worked in the manufacturing and construction industries for the first half of my professional life.
​
I have always been intrigued about what makes us feel at ease and authentic. That led me first to exploring the external spaces we occupy (hence my interest in architecture) and then subsequently to expanding it to the internal spaces we inhibit in our bodies and minds.
​
I have followed my interests over the last 18 years, training in bodywork, energy work, coaching, Focusing, IFS therapy (Internal Family Systems Therapy) and Depth Psychotherapy (Core Process Psychotherapy).
I am trained to level 3 in IFS model and have been assisting in professional IFS trainings as a Program Assistant since 2020.
I am an advanced, clinical year student at a UKCP accredited, postgraduate diploma in Core Process Psychotherapy with Karuna Institute which is a mindfulness-based, embodied and relational approach to depth psychotherapy which integrates eastern and western perspectives on mind and healing.
​
As a trainee of this psychotherapeutic approach, I may be able to offer a lower cost depth psychotherapy sessions. Please see Psychotherapy page for further information.
