Being present
matters
I bring together psychological knowledge and care for what you are experiencing here and now.
I support people affected by cancer and their loved ones. I am alongside them at difficult times — after diagnosis, during treatment, in remission and in palliative care. I also work with people experiencing grief, crisis or trauma.
I value a whole-person approach: feelings, the body, relationships and everyday life. In Gestalt, the approach I am training in, connection and awareness of our own experience play a central role.
I don't assume what your path should look like. Together, we explore what you need and what kind of support may be right for you.
Also beyond
the practice
Support takes many forms. Individual conversations matter to me, as does working with people who support those living with illness.
Alongside my own practice, I work in an inpatient hospice and on hospital wards, primarily with oncology patients. I am a member of the Polish Psycho-oncology Society.
I am the founder and president of Fundacja RazeMy, and a founder and board member of the West Pomeranian Association of Psycho-oncology and Palliative Care.
I am carrying out research for my doctoral thesis. I am interested in quality of life at every stage of cancer, including advanced illness and palliative care.
I created the mental and physical health campaign “oNKo Na Życie” and the “Jesteśmy PierWsi” campaign, which encourages regular preventive health checks. I also run workshops on emotional support for people with cancer.

How I work
I work with children, adults and older people. I adapt each conversation to the person and their situation.

- Presence, listening and respect for your story.

- Your own pace
- Room to ask questions, look for words and express your boundaries.
A Forum that
connects people
I am the founder and lead organiser of the Szczecin Forum of Psycho-oncology and Palliative Care.
The first edition took place on 9 October 2026 at Teatr Polski in Szczecin. It brings together professionals, people affected by cancer and their loved ones. Sharing knowledge, working together and talking about quality of life during illness matter to me.
I am also preparing the second edition of the Forum, scheduled for 4–6 November 2027. We will meet again at Teatr Polski in Szczecin.

Space
for your story
We can meet at my practice at Polskich Marynarzy 48/5 in Szczecin or online. When circumstances call for it, home visits can be discussed individually.
Alongside my individual work, I provide psychoeducation and host conversations on the oNKo Na Życie channel. I believe in talking openly about mental and physical health.
