Karolina Socha

• have a low mood or symptoms of depression
• experience anxiety or panic attacks
• live under chronic stress and feel burnt out
• are going through an emotional or life crisis
• have difficulties in relationships
• find it hard to value themselves
• are looking for their own path
• need support during pregnancy or after giving birth

I work with adults. I also support people who want to understand themselves better and make conscious changes in their lives.

The first session is a conversation about what brings you here and what you need. You do not have to have a diagnosis or a precise name for the problem — it is enough that something weighs on you. Together we check whether psychotherapy is a good path for you and what it could look like. The session lasts 50 minutes.

I work in the Gestalt approach. A safe relationship built on awareness, respect, trust and acceptance is important to me.

Together we look at emotions, needs and ways of reacting — so that you can understand yourself better and make lasting, conscious changes.
