Executive Psychotherapy
What this is
Executive psychotherapy is a confidential, depth-oriented form of psychotherapy for senior leaders who carry responsibility at the top and need a place where performance, identity, and inner life can be worked with together.
This is psychotherapy — not coaching or skills training — adapted to the realities of executive responsibility.
Clinical foundation and approach
This work is grounded in formal training in Gestalt psychotherapy, an established, relational and experiential form of psychotherapy with a strong clinical foundation, focused on embodied awareness, agency, and lived experience in the present moment.
The work is also informed by other established psychotherapeutic traditions, including:
transactional analysis
psychodynamic perspectives
body-oriented approaches
All interventions are clinically appropriate, ethically governed, and shaped by ongoing professional supervision.
Why this work is different
This practice is shaped by a dual professional background:
certified psychotherapist based in Poland with 15+ years of clinical practice
A dual professional background shapes this practice
This combination allows the work to address psychological depth without losing contact with organisational reality, power dynamics, or executive responsibility.
You are not asked to translate your world. It is already understood.
Who this work is for
This work is for leaders who:
carry decisions that cannot be shared internally
experience sustained pressure, isolation, or decision fatigue
are navigating transitions (role, succession, exit, identity)
function well outwardly, while sensing internal misalignment
have outgrown tactical coaching or surface-level support
You do not need to be “in crisis.” But something important is no longer resolving on its own.
How the work creates change
Most executive interventions focus on behaviour, strategy, or optimisation.
This work operates at the level where those behaviours are generated.
Unexamined internal dynamics quietly shape how leaders decide, relate, and carry responsibility.
When these dynamics are brought into awareness and worked through, clarity returns — not as advice, but as an internal shift.
From there, decisions simplify. Pressure becomes easier to contain. Performance stabilises as a by-product.
What typically changes
Leaders often report:
greater decisiveness with less internal friction
reduced cognitive and emotional load
improved capacity to stay present under pressure
clearer boundaries in relationships and roles
a steadier internal sense of authority
These outcomes are not pursued directly.
They emerge from internal realignment.
What this is not
This work is not:
executive coaching
performance optimisation
skills training
advice-giving or mentoring
short-term problem solving
If you are looking for tactical solutions or behavioural techniques, this is unlikely to be a fit.
Practicalities and confidentiality
Sessions are 50 minutes
Frequency is agreed upon (often weekly or bi-weekly)
Work may be time-limited or open-ended
Sessions are conducted in person (Warsaw) or online
All work is strictly confidential and governed by professional ethical standards
Fees are agreed individually after an initial conversation and confirmed in advance.
The first conversation
We begin with a single, focused conversation.
Its purpose is to:
understand what brings you here
assess whether this way of working fits your needs
determine whether we should proceed
There is no obligation to continue.
If the work is not appropriate, that will be named clearly.
Next steps
If this speaks to you, schedule a confidential consultation (Warsaw or online), conducted in English or Polish. 50 minutes. No agenda. No performance. No obligation. Just a quiet conversation to test fit and whether this is the right work for you.
