Agnes Kowalski B.A., R.I.H.R, Spiritual Director, Certified Body Psychotherapist, Member CAPT
What I offer to you in therapy is a focused, empowering and action oriented commitment, so that you can begin moving through your issues right away. I propose a fresh, young perspective in therapy that deals with issues in a contemporary vernacular. It takes true courage to open up and decide you are ready, and even more so to allow another person to be a part of that. As someone who has been on either ends of therapy, I appreciate both standpoints and have designed my practice with that in mind, from the viewpoint of a knowledgeable and experienced therapist as well as from that of the client, who is the true expert of the Self. My practice over time has organically evolved into phone and on-line psychotherapy. Distance has been overcome by these technologies. I have been working 'remotely' both to accommodate clients from many places and in response to the demands of my projects as a producer for a soon to be released meditation series, as well as various workshops I facilitate in North America. The voice is a powerful instrument and allows me to connect with clients who prefer the convenience of having sessions over the phone from the comfort of their own environment. I have discovered that the phone/on-line approach is an excellent tool for many because the phone is so familiar one, as on-line is fast becoming. Many of my clients are from beyond the city or country limits and are restricted by travel, some are students who find this channel flexible and others are simply extremely busy professionals/artists/parents who don’t have time to go anywhere else. This form of therapy may not be for everyone but for others it’s a perfect fit. For those who resonate with this channel, rest assured no integrity is lost through not being in person. I feel that doing therapy this way has made me a firm believer in that we can find our moments of quiet discovery anywhere and anytime. I invite you to find this out for yourself. The on-line option adds the power of live real-time video in conjunction with the voice for those who desire it. I have found it easy and fun to use. I grew up in an ethnically and culturally diverse family, I am a sports enthusiast & former athlete, an artist, a writer and also a psychotherapist with a great sense of humour. What therapy has given me is the permission to be exactly who I am, to accept my attributes and shortcomings. In return that is what I offer in my services— possibility, choice, perspective and a large open space for you to begin re-creating the life and relationships you want—or falling in love with the ones you already have. My practice is holistic, meaning that the client?s mind, body and spirit are all part of the process. The atmosphere provided is safe, trusting and highly confidential. Rest assured that my credentials match my open and down to earth nature. I am a graduate of the Transformational Arts College Psychotherapy program and of its Spiritual Director program. I am certified by the Canadian Health Board as a Registered Human Relations Specialist and received my B.A. from the University of Toronto. My therapy experience includes training in Stanley Keleman's emotionally based bodywork and the Hakomi Method. My work is also strongly influenced by Louise Hay, Carolyn Myss and Anodea Judith. I have had the pleasure of lecturing at the Canadian College for Naturopathic Medicine and have been a featured in Complex Magazine.
