Bogusław Dec

I hold a master’s degree in psychology and am a psychotherapist undergoing a five-year training programme at the Katowice Institute of Psychotherapy. I work with adolescents aged 16+ and adults.

I help adults cope with difficult emotions, life crises, anxiety and depression, and find a path towards a more conscious and satisfying life.

I specialise in working with adolescents aged 16+, offering support during the difficult moments of adolescence and emotional challenges. My approach is based on focused therapeutic work aimed at helping to build balance and healthy peer relationships, as well as ways of coping with everyday anxieties and difficulties.

The integrative psychotherapeutic approach in which I work combines Ericksonian, systemic, cognitive-behavioural and psychodynamic modalities. This gives me a broad set of therapeutic tools that can be adapted to a client’s needs and possibilities.

I also completed postgraduate studies in psychotraumatology, which prepare me to work with people in severe traumatic crisis, as well as Level I Coherence Therapy and Level I Solution-Focused Therapy. The latter provides useful tools that complement some helping processes.

I completed postgraduate studies in pedagogical preparation, which are necessary for working with adolescents. Alongside working as a psychologist at a Mental Health Clinic for Children and Adolescents and in two secondary schools, I continue to build practical experience and expand my knowledge through numerous trainings on supporting teenagers in psychological and emotional crisis.

I am a member of the Polish Psychological Association and the Polish Psychiatric Association. I also develop my academic interests through publications in renowned scientific journals.
