Certified Psychotherapist and Supervisor
Wojciech Sulimierski
If you’ve come across this page, it’s probably because you’re feeling lousy inside, suffering in some way, struggling with problems, at the end of your rope, or simply unable to cope.
You’re likely looking for help because you want a better life. These are very good—one might even say, very healthy—desires, coming from a part of you that is crying out for support.
It’s worth listening to that part, even if it feels like only a small fraction of who you are. Even a little can be enough to set you on the path to inner freedom. Perhaps I could help you on this journey.

shyness, withdrawal, excessive dependence on other people, unintentionally submitting to them
inability to establish satisfying relationships with people, especially intimate relationships,
various traumas and painful losses (of someone or something),

inadequate to the situation emotional states or, on the contrary, “lack of feelings”,
various symptoms in the sexual functioning,

Types of psychological treatment offered:
Starting with the first so-called trial session (180-minutes) and continuing thereafter with 80-minutes sessions every one or two weeks. An important detail regarding ISTDP is that sessions are recorded on video to allow the therapist to continuously refine their work through both self-reflection (thanks to access to the recorded material) and, if necessary, with the help of a supervisor. Naturally, this material—being highly sensitive—is protected by all clauses applicable to medical confidentiality.
- ISTDP 180-min. session – PLN 910
- ISTDP 80-min. session – PLN 560
Leading to initial understanding of the patient’s reported problems to determine if they should be treated with psychotherapy.
- Individual consultation (50-min.) – PLN 420
Therapy is preceded by a consultation.
- Couples therapy consultation/session (80-min.) – PLN 630
The 50-minute sessions focus on a specific challenge and help find the best solution. They are not therapy but serve a strategic purpose—supporting decision-making or coping in difficult situations. Sessions can be regular or occasional, depending on the need.
- Supportive therapy/counseling (50-min.) – PLN 420
