Couples therapy in Polish, online

You may be doing a lot for each other, and at the same time understanding each other less and less.

Sometimes what was meant to protect others and hold everything together begins to create distance between you.

This is not diagnosis or medical therapy – it is a space to understand what is happening between you.

One session can help you see your relationship from a new perspective.

For couples living abroad

Living abroad often means living in survival mode.

Love is often expressed through work, effort, and being far away – for the good of others.

But sometimes what was meant as an expression of love begins to create distance.

Over time, it becomes harder to meet – not only physically, but emotionally.

It can be difficult to speak openly – not to worry others, to somehow keep everything together.

Many things remain unspoken. Not because they do not matter, but because it is hard to find space for them.

You do not need to explain everything from the beginning. This context is familiar to me – both from personal experience and from working with couples.

A space where you can speak freely

Polish communities abroad are often close-knit and interconnected.

This can make it harder to speak openly about what is really happening in your relationship.

Working with someone outside your local community offers a different kind of privacy – you can speak freely, without worrying who might find out.

Ania Szurpicka

Couples therapist

I work with couples, helping them understand what is really happening beneath the surface of conflict.

I have experience and training in Europe, New Zealand, and internationally – but what matters most is how I work with you during the session.

How I work with couples

At the core of every conflict is a need – to be seen, understood, and truly matter to the other person.

When that need feels threatened, reactions appear. Some withdraw. Others attack. Some shut down or try to stay “reasonable”. Beneath it all, there is usually pain.

I create a calm space where no one is blamed or attacked.

At the same time, we do not avoid what is truly important. If something deeper is shaping the conflict, we gradually name and understand it.

I help regulate the tension between you, so difficult conversations can happen without escalation.

As you begin to understand your patterns, something starts to shift.

You may be experiencing

• Repeated conflicts without resolution
• Emotional distance or numbness
• Loss of closeness or intimacy
• A sense that you are living side by side, not together
• Long periods of silence
• Doubts about whether the relationship will survive
• Stress related to living abroad or life changes

Many couples come to

• Feel heard without being attacked
• Rebuild trust and closeness
• Feel connection again
• Understand what is really behind the conflict
• Find an honest way forward

What the first session looks like

The first session is a 60-minute online conversation.

Many couples come with fear – of being misunderstood, of saying too much, of the relationship not working out.

My role is to slow things down and create a space where both of you can be heard.

We begin to understand what is happening beneath the surface – what is rarely spoken, but deeply felt.

Even when everything feels close to falling apart, something important can happen.

Many couples leave the first session with something they have not felt in a long time:

a sense that something can change
