I run my own clinical practice in my office in Gdynia.

What makes my approach different

Therapeutic relationship

The therapeutic relationship develops over time between the patient and the therapist, and it is a key element of the therapeutic process. This relationship, based on trust and safety, enables the patient to open up to deeper emotional experiences. It allows for the exploration, experiencing, and discovery of psychological states that are often inaccessible to the conscious mind. In the safe environment provided by the therapist, the patient can confront difficult emotions and memories, facilitating their integration and helping to resolve difficulties related to unconscious conflicts. This collaboration supports long-lasting changes in emotional and psychological functioning.

Exploration

During the session, the therapist encourages the patient to explore both the conscious and unconscious aspects of their experiences. This process involves paying attention not only to what the patient is consciously aware of but also to what is initially difficult to access or only faintly perceived. Exploration helps uncover hidden emotions, thoughts, and defense mechanisms that shape the way the patient perceives themselves and the world. Over time, this growing awareness allows the patient to better understand their internal conflicts, directly influencing their experience of reality. This deeper self-understanding leads to greater emotional harmony and an improved quality of life.

Stability

In therapy, the therapist not only encourages exploration of unconscious aspects of the psyche but also ensures the patient's stability throughout the process. Stability means that the patient has a safe space to explore their emotions and experiences without feeling threatened or destabilized. This ensures that, even when confronting difficult topics, the patient feels supported and can gradually work through their challenges. Stability in therapy helps maintain emotional balance, allowing the patient to implement changes effectively. This combination of exploration and stability enables deep transformation while safeguarding the patient's well-being throughout the process.

Ethics

An essential element of the therapeutic process is ethics, which ensures that the entire process is conducted safely, professionally, and in alignment with the therapist's values. Ethics in therapy involves not only maintaining confidentiality and respecting the patient's privacy but also fostering a relationship based on trust, respect, and equality. My practice is based on the Ethical Code of the Polish Society for Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, ensuring that the therapeutic process adheres to the highest ethical standards. This approach allows the patient to feel secure, knowing that their emotional needs are addressed with care and within appropriate boundaries. Ethics provides a solid foundation for the patient's experience, ensuring that the therapeutic process is solely focused on their well-being and growth.
