Psychotherapist Weronika Pielas

I am a psychotherapist working within the Process-Oriented Psychology (Process Work) approach. I offer individual psychotherapy and couples therapy for adults. Supporting each person with respect for their inner diversity and the social context in which they live is very important to me.

It is a great privilege for me to accompany people through change, along the mysterious paths that lead to it, and to help them discover their resources and ways of coping with difficult situations. This work is about living better and more fully, but also about learning how to care for one’s painful and suffering parts.

In psychotherapy, I value creating a welcoming and safe space in which it is possible to explore what is difficult: personal issues, relational challenges, and difficulties related to social or professional functioning.

I offer support to adults in situations such as:

• life transitions and emotional crises,

• internal and external conflicts,

• anxiety and depression,

• low self-esteem,

• crises in intimate and family relationships,

• illness and physical symptoms,

• exclusion and marginalization related to belonging to a social minority (e.g. working with LGBT+ people or individuals from national or ethnic minorities),

• a desire for change and deeper self-understanding,

• and other life difficulties.

I also invite couples who are facing life changes, conflicts, communication difficulties, crises, or who are seeking ways for their relationship to bring more joy and satisfaction.

I have been involved in Process-Oriented Psychology since 2012. I first studied it at the Polish Association for Process-Oriented Psychology, and later at the Process Work Institute in Portland, Oregon, where I completed a four-year training program, obtaining a diploma and full qualifications to practice psychotherapy and facilitation in this method.

I have been working as a psychotherapist and facilitator since 2016. I completed a one-year-and-four-month clinical internship at River’s Way Training and Community Clinic, a clinic operating within the Process Work Institute. In subsequent years, I worked in my private practice, Sfera Snów.

I am also a sociologist and graduated from the Institute of Applied Social Sciences at the University of Warsaw, with a specialization in therapeutic and social support.

I work under the supervision of Process-Oriented Psychology teachers.
