I’m Magda, a qualified trauma-informed therapist working at the intersection of nervous system regulation, affective and cognitive neuroscience, and embodied perception.
I have worked clinically since 2018 with complex trauma, addiction, domestic violence, and long-term nervous system dysregulation within organisations supporting domestic violence, sexual abuse, addiction, and crisis-level presentations.
Those environments shaped how I practice. In organisational settings:
Work is documented.
Risk is real.
Decisions carry weight.
Outcomes matter.
You are part of a system where progress must be observable, not theoretical.
I was trained to:
Track behavioural and nervous system changes over time
Work under pressure without losing clarity
Hold complexity without collapsing into emotional intensity
Distinguish between insight and actual functional change
That ethos stayed with me. My private practice reflects that standard.
2018–2019
Clinical placements in Southampton, UK
– Change Grow Live — addiction services
– Yellow Door — domestic violence and sexual abuse services
(two concurrent placements)

Diploma in Person-Centred Counselling — completed with distinction.
2019–2022
Counsellor at Yellow Door (Southampton, UK)
Domestic violence and sexual abuse services, including child sexual abuse.
2022–present
Private practice specialising in high-functioning adults with complex trauma.
What I offer is a structured framework for building internal capacity. I have lived across cultures and languages: Poland by birth, the UK and Spain by choice. That experience trained precision under pressure: adapting without losing coherence.My work reflects that. It is disciplined nervous system work for adults who want clarity, agency, and internal stability.
