Life is a beautiful journey, but it can also be complicated and overwhelming at times. That’s why I’m here to help you navigate through the challenges and succeed in life. With my expertise in self-esteem, addictions, anxiety, depression, motivation, relationships, trauma, educational and professional goal setting, and planning, I can guide and empower you to achieve your goals.
I believe that everyone is unique and diverse, and that’s why I use a variety of approaches based on each person’s unique needs: Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Solution-focused therapy, and Mindfulness. I also utilize Rational Emotive Choice, which is very useful when working with people who struggle with self-confidence, addiction, and co-occurring disorders.
Whether you’re a teenager, young adult, adult, or older adult, my services are available to you. I strive to provide a supportive, non-judgmental, and safe environment where you can express yourself and feel heard and appreciated.
Apart from my professional life, I enjoy spending time with my family and animals, gardening, and volunteering. I also like to golf and have started learning to play the piano. I am grateful for each day, so I try to live life to the fullest and appreciate every moment.
Remember, you’re not alone in this journey. Let me help you find your strengths and overcome your challenges.

“Our greatest need is to be seen.” Marianne Williamson. My goal as a counselor is to be someone who sees and understands. We are all individuals and have many complexities. Our needs and struggles are unique. I hope to provide support and encouragement as well as strategies for living life well. It can sometimes be difficult to reach out and ask for help. Sometimes, things get in the way, and we hesitate. I understand that and hope that I can work to make you feel comfortable.
I have been a therapist for 20 years and find this to be the most rewarding job. I have worked with people from all walks of life, all ages, and all stages. I work with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, and related mental health concerns. I am comfortable working with couples, adolescents, and families. I have a heart for parents and provide parenting support, including families with special needs children and adoptive families. I have experience in crisis intervention and can provide resources and support as needed.
We will create the treatment path to fit your needs and use modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Solution-focused therapy, and more. Counseling is definitely not one size fits all. Making that first call is the most important step you can make. I want you to know that my door is open, and I look forward to hearing from you!

The stress from everyday life can be overwhelming for people of any age, and it can come from a surprising number of sources. Prolonged stress can lead to depression and anxiety, and we may not be sure where it’s coming from or what to do about it. If you are feeling hesitant about starting therapy, know that asking for help is a sign of strength and not weakness.
I see young adults (+18), adults, and seniors. My special interest is depression, anxiety, ADHD, self-esteem, trauma, addictions, immigration, acculturation, and adjustment.
Cognitive-behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on recognizing and challenging distressing thought processes and behaviors, replacing them with more realistic and positive ones to elevate depression and anxiety. The Psychodynamic approach examines the deeper sources of these behaviors. Mindfulness means observing and naming thoughts, feelings, and sensations in the body in an objective, nonjudgmental manner. In my work with clients, I use various techniques derived from CBT, Psychodynamic, and Mindfulness.
In addition, as a Certified Addictions Counselor, I offer therapeutic services to those struggling with addictions or needing support in maintaining sobriety.
I was born in Poland, and finding myself in a new country and adapting to the new culture allowed me to have a wider view of life’s experiences.
As we work together to find roots and solutions to your problems and issues, I will guide you through this process with kindness, compassion, and empathy.

My clients are children and adolescents experiencing life changes like divorce, grief/loss, or struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, or low self-esteem. My goal is to empower you, help you to see your superpower and learn the skills to cope with life changes and challenges.
I like to take a humanistic approach to therapy, letting my clients share and express themselves without fear of judgment or criticism.
