I provide individual psychotherapy sessions in English for adults living in Poland and, where cross-border practice is legally permitted, for clients living abroad.<\/p>\n
You do not need to have a diagnosis or know exactly how to describe what is happening. The first consultation is a space to talk about your current situation, understand what feels most difficult, and decide whether psychotherapy and my way of working may be a good fit for you.<\/p>\n
If you are looking for an English-speaking psychotherapist in Poland, I offer individual psychotherapy in English for adults, online and from my practice in Lublin. I am Pawe\u0142 Szyma\u0144ski, a certified psychotherapist and a member of the World Association for Positive and Transcultural Psychotherapy (WAPP). My qualifications can be independently checked in the public WAPP directory and on my ZnanyLekarz professional profile. PROGRES is my psychotherapy practice in Lublin, Poland.<\/p>\n
For people living elsewhere in Poland, online psychotherapy in English makes it possible to work regularly without travelling to Lublin. Polish-speaking clients in Poland can also use psychotherapy online in Polish<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n Moving to another country can affect relationships, identity, work, family roles and the sense of belonging. I am familiar with the realities of living abroad and can include this context in therapy when it is relevant to your situation.<\/p>\n My primary approach is Positive Psychotherapy. I also draw on Ericksonian and Systemic Psychotherapy. My work focuses on creating a respectful, confidential and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship while keeping the process connected to concrete goals and changes in everyday life.<\/p>\n Sessions can take place through a mutually agreed video platform, for example WhatsApp, Messenger or another convenient tool. Before the first appointment we agree on the simplest option for you while making sure you have suitable privacy for the conversation.<\/p>\n Rules for psychotherapy and psychological services vary between countries and, in places such as the United States and Canada, between states or provinces. Before ongoing therapy begins, we confirm where you are physically located and whether cross-border online work is permitted under the applicable local requirements.<\/p>\n I am a certified psychotherapist with many years of clinical experience. I hold international Consultant and Master certificates in Positive Psychotherapy, work under regular supervision, and I am listed in the public WAPP member directory<\/strong><\/a>. My professional profile is also independently available on ZnanyLekarz<\/a>.<\/p>\n The first consultation does not commit you to long-term therapy. It can simply be a first conversation.<\/strong><\/p>\nWhat can we work on?<\/h2>\n
