Agnieszka Mesterhazy – psychologist, counselor

• Counseling (Adults)
• Short-term psychotherapy


”I work individually with adults, offering support in navigating life difficulties at various stages, including professional burnout and motivational dilemmas, low self-esteem, relationship crises  and stress management issues.
With experience in international and multicultural business environments, I supported employees and managers in team-building, communication, and development, which I now apply in my work with clients struggling with a lack of motivation, professional stagnation, or a sense of purposelessness. I am fluent in English both professionally and privately, having worked in international settings and having lived in the United States.
In my practice, I integrate various therapeutic techniques, always tailoring my approach to the specific needs of each client. I create a safe space based on empathy, trust, and openness, supporting clients on their journey to better self-understanding and discovering the root causes of their challenges.”

  • Renata Ambasz – counselor


    Psychodynamic Counseling


    I graduated from Jagiellonian Univ, and earned Postgraduate Diploma in Psychodynamic Counseling, Goldsmiths College, Univ. of London. Psychodynamic counseling shares the same core principles as psychodynamic therapy but this process tends to be quick and solution-focused (10-30 sessions). As a psychodynamic counselor I am an active advocate of change rather than a neutral observer. I work with wide range of problems, my specialities being relationship issues and cross-cultural differences.
    Working with cultural diversity and in different languages gave me the ability to see more clearly how our choices are determined by factors not so obvious to us at the first glance. I strongly believe we can learn and achieve anything we want if we mantain psychological balance, get access to our own potential and power as well as synchronize mind and heart in order to be really sure what we really want in life”.

    JOANNA KROTOFIL – PSYCHOLOGIST, COUNSELOR


    Individual Counseling (Adults)

    Short term therapy


    ‘I offer short-term psychotherapy which is proven to help with: coping with stress and resolving conflicts, feelings of being depressed, anxious, “panicky” or unable to concentrate, bereavement and loss, severe mood changes, difficulties in making or keeping relationships. I help patients to gain an awareness of how their beliefs and actions hurt them and keep them repeating the same unhelpful responses in new situations.
    This type of treatment is recommended as an alternative to long term therapy for those wishing to work with defined focus and fulfilling some preconditions.  I carefully access all patients during the first sessions and refer all those requiring long term therapy.
    I am fluent in English; I lived and worked abroad, in English-speaking environment (UK), for almost fifteen years and I continue using English in my everyday life”.

  • Małgorzata Chechlińska-Święch

    Couples Therapy
    • Family Therapy (Adolescents)


    I am a clinical psychologist with 25 years of experience. After graduating in Psychology from Jagiellonian University I’ve finished a 3 years Post Graduate Family therapy course and 3 years post graduate course for certification in Psychodynamic psychotherapy. For many years I’ve been consulting and leading family therapy with adolescent patients and therapy for couples in different types of crises (relation problems, coping with somatic disease, coping with loss of family members).
    I concentrate mainly on communication and types of emotional connection but I apply a psychodynamic overview on partners interactions and mutual attitude. I believe that a safe relationship with a therapist can help to stabilize one emotionally and allow to overcome life traps and lead through developmental tasks both in individual or family course of life”.

    Individual psychotherapy
    • Couples therapy


    I am a psychologist and a psychotherapist. I completed a comprehensive psychotherapy training (KCP). I offer both individual and couples psychotherapy in a psychodynamic approach using elements of the Transference Focused Therapy-TFP method. I mainly work with adults who suffer from personality disorders, as well as anxiety, mood, eating or obsessive-compulsive disorders. I also offer psychotherapy for people diagnosed with neurodevelopmental disorders – ADHD and autism spectrum disorder – as well as for those who experience life crisis or difficulties and suffering in their everyday functioning. In my work I follow the principles of the professional ethical code for psychologists, particularly committing myself to maintaining the anonymity of a patient and the confidentiality of all the information passed on in a psychotherapy process. I work under regular supervision”.
