Grazyna Gwarek

Welcome. Life can be challenging, and sometimes we need a safe, confidential space to make sense of things. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or are simply ready to understand yourself better, I’m here to help.

My name is Grazyna, and I am an integrative psychotherapist offering a warm, empathic, and skilled partnership to support you on your journey.

My Approach to Therapy

I believe that you are the expert on your own life. My role is to offer a supportive space and a professional framework to help you explore your challenges, gain new perspectives, and make the changes you desire.

As an “integrative” therapist, I draw upon different therapeutic styles (including Transactional Analysis, Person-Centred, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) to tailor our sessions specifically to you and your needs. Together, we can work to:

  • Understand the root of your difficulties.

  • Develop new, healthier ways of thinking and behaving.

  • Build your self-esteem and self-acceptance.

  • Improve your relationships and set healthy boundaries.

  • Find more enjoyment and appreciation in your daily life.

My passion for this work is deeply personal. Having experienced the transformative power of therapy myself, I have a profound appreciation for the courage it takes to begin and the incredible benefits that are possible.

How We Can Work Together

I work with individual adults, both for ongoing therapy and for focused, single-session work.

  • Ongoing Therapy: We can decide together on the number of sessions that feels right for you.

  • OnePlus Therapy / Single-Session Therapy: This is a powerful, stand-alone 50-minute session designed to tackle a specific issue. It’s a great option if you need focused support, with the possibility of more sessions if needed.
