Agata provides a warm compassionate space for clients to work through their painful feelings and bring about the desired changes in their lives. She works creatively with each individual meeting them where they are and helping them engage in the process of developing self-awareness and well-being. She helps people become curious, compassionate observers and attentive listeners to their own experience.

Clinical Supervision Model
Agata’s approach to supervision is humanistic and integrative – an integration of Gestalt Relational Model and the Seven-Eyed Supervision Model (Hawkins and Shohet, 2012). Her practice of supervision is also informed by my strong interest in Hakomi and mindfulness. It is a process- oriented approach which focuses on increasing awareness and on the relationships between client, therapist, and supervisor. Agata’s intention is to build a relationship with you that will support you in your work with your clients and enable you to reflect, learn and grow as a therapist.
