With over 15 years of experience, I offer compassionate and personalised care, helping you manage and overcome anxiety effectively. Seeking professional help is crucial to breaking free from the grip of anxiety and reclaiming your life.

Understanding Anxiety

What is Anxiety?

Anxiety spans a wide spectrum, from a subtle sense of constant vigilance and overthinking to overwhelming and debilitating feelings of fear and panic. Conditions like Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD), panic disorders, and social anxiety are specific examples of how anxiety manifests psychologically. Regardless of its intensity, anxiety involves persistent worry, tension, agitation, and often a constant sense of impending danger that can permeate all areas of life, significantly affecting your well-being, your professional life, and your relationships with others.

My Approach to Treating Anxiety

I use a combination of evidence-based therapies and a compassionate, client-centred approach to help you resolve your anxiety effectively. My therapeutic methods include:

Person-Centred, Humanistic Therapy

This approach provides a non-judgmental, empathetic space where you can explore your feelings and experiences openly, helping you feel heard and understood.

Mindfulness and Meditation

These practices equip you with tools and techniques to stay present, grounded, and manage your emotions. Mindfulness helps you develop a greater awareness of your thoughts and feelings, reducing the power anxiety holds over you.

Polyvagal Theory

This approach enhances your ability to regulate stress and balance your nervous system. It focuses on calming the body's physiological responses to anxiety, helping you feel more secure and stable.

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

This method helps you resolve internal conflicts, promoting self-awareness and emotional healing. By understanding the different parts of yourself, you can address the underlying issues that contribute to your anxiety.

At the heart of my practice is our therapeutic relationship, offering a safe, non-judgmental, and nurturing environment where you can safely explore challenges and achieve profound personal growth. My goal is to provide you with the support and tools you need to navigate your anxiety and live a more peaceful, empowered life.

A Journey of a Thousand Miles Starts with a Single Step

Taking the first step towards starting therapy can feel intimidating, and it’s perfectly normal to feel apprehensive. To ease this process, I offer a complimentary initial consultation where we can meet, discuss your hopes and expectations, and see if we’re a good match. This session is also an opportunity for you to ask any questions about therapy. Together, we’ll explore your concerns and goals, creating a personalized therapy plan tailored to your unique needs if you choose to continue.

"So many things have changed in my life after therapy with Kasia, but what feels like the greatest breakthrough of all was the newly found inner peace and self-acceptance. I quieted the critical voices in my head and replaced them with a gentle and loving voice that reminds me of my inherent worth and value. It still feels unbelievable, but I finally feel comfortable in my own skin, able to embrace my strengths and my vulnerabilities, knowing that they make me uniquely ME."

"Thanks to working with Kasia, I was able to overcome a deep sense of isolation that I carried in me my whole life. I had always longed for a deep sense of belonging and connection but was never able to experience that. Through our sessions, I understood why. Once I healed the old patterns, I started to surround myself with people who truly see me, who celebrate my joys and stand by me during difficult moments. My current relationships feel nurturing, authentic, and are built on mutual trust and support."

"When I first came across this course, I felt like my whole life was falling apart. I was very skeptical at first. I’ve tried so many other things and nothing worked. But I felt intrigued by the idea that I could fall in love with myself, even if I doubted it was possible. Soon, my whole attention was engrossed by the course! I started to see results almost immediately. I enjoyed doing the practices and loved the self-reflection pages. So, I applied myself fully. And very soon, things started to shift BIG TIME! This course transformed my whole life and put me on an amazing, joyful personal journey. Investing my time and money in it was one of the best decisions in my life!"

"Working with Kasia has made me realize how hard I am on myself and how complicated I make life in relation to my thoughts, how I live my life, and how I react to others who are themselves stressed, angry, or have no boundaries. Self-care is a choice that I now make to be kinder, loving, and more compassionate with myself. My breath is very important to ground me and bring me closer to looking after my own needs. Just by talking to Kasia, I feel supported, loved, and challenged to be kind to myself. Understanding and acting on the many tools Kasia has taught me has meant I feel my heart and mind softening towards myself and others in my life."

"Kasia helped me gain massive insights into the patterns of my behaviors. She helped me be compassionate to myself when my self-talk had been very critical. Looking to the roots of where thoughts and beliefs were originating, she helped me navigate to a much better place in my life. I’d highly recommend her and am very grateful for all the help she has provided."
