About Sylwia
Their subcultural competence includes work with BDSM communities, polyamorous relationships, and occult practices. As an LMHC, which stands for Licensed Mental Health Counselor, they rely on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide the work.
Sylwia provides psychoeducation about mental health, validates and affirms clients, and supports people in reclaiming their power. They collaborate with clients to set clear tasks and goals and consistently address those priorities throughout treatment. Together they devise plans to improve quality of life, strengthen relationships, build self-soothing skills, and increase accountability.
The overarching aim of their practice is practical and measurable progress. Sylwia views therapy as a process of developing understanding and new skills so that clients eventually use an individualized blueprint for living that supports ongoing well-being.
Could Virtual Therapy Be a Good Fit?
Many people wonder if online therapy can truly help. For many common concerns - such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes - online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.One major benefit is flexibility. Individuals can connect with a therapist in the way that fits their routine and comfort level, choosing from video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
Care is provided by licensed professionals and therapists, and people have the option to switch therapists if they seek a different fit. Online formats can support consistent engagement and access to therapeutic approaches without requiring travel.

My clinical approaches include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Existential Therapy, and Gottman Method.
I see it as my responsibility to use evidence-based therapeutic techniques, provide you with psychoeducation regarding mental health, validate and affirm you, help you find your power, and consistently address the tasks and goals we create together for your treatment plan, and I believe therapeutic work is about developing understanding and new skill sets so that you reach a day in which you are using your individualized blueprint for living.

—Who I Help
I work with clients on addictions, LGBT, relationship issues, intimacy-related issues, and ADHD.
I have a professional history of assisting clients who are in recovery from complex trauma (including socioeconomic and spiritual oppression), cis- and hetero-normativity, and causing harm, and my subcultural competence extends to BDSM, polyamory, and occultism.
