Who am I?
Hello, I am Gabi Baska…
…a psychologist specializing in systemic therapy. I earned my Master’s Degree in Psychology from the University of Warsaw, focusing on psychotherapy. I then moved to Barcelona to further my studies in Creative Therapy, specifically Dance Movement Therapy, at the Autonomous University of Barcelona, where I learned the importance of body awareness and conscious movement in the healing process.
As a certified Systemic-Relational Therapist trained at Hestia Centre in Barcelona, I aim to understand how dynamics and behavior patterns influence emotional health. With hands-on experience from various clinics and therapy centers, I continuously enhance my skills through additional training and workshops.
I offer therapy services in Polish, Spanish, and English in the vibrant city of Barcelona. My goal is to provide a welcoming and supportive environment for anyone looking to grow emotionally and improve their well-being
How I work?
My therapeutic approach is grounded in systemic-relational methods, incorporating the intricate mind-body connection and experiential tools. In our sessions, we embark on a journey that encompasses your life, family dynamics, and emotions—delving into the past, navigating the present, and envisioning the future. Together, we create a coherent narrative, and you are the author of this story.
In our collaborative journey, the first few sessions are dedicated to getting to know each other and establishing a secure base for our work together. We will create a therapeutic contract that provides a safe space for deeper exploration in the future. Once we have laid this foundation, we can dive into the underlying issues, and with a base of understanding and naming what is happening, we can proceed to process difficult emotions and seek new experiences to break the vicious cycles. You will identify the goals you want to achieve in therapy, and depending on those goals, our work may take a few sessions or evolve into a longer journey. It’s important to note that goals can change along the way, and that’s completely fine.
It’s natural to feel hesitant about reaching out or to be afraid of being seen or heard. This is why I am here—to help you unravel the issues that may be difficult to address. Together, we will navigate a path that is uniquely yours, fostering a therapeutic environment where your story can unfold with genuine authenticity and purpose.
The objective is simple yet profound: to truly understand you and make your relationship with yourself stronger. Together, we will explore the rich landscape of your experiences, weaving a narrative that unravels the complexities of your unique journey. Remember, everyone is different, and each person has their own process, which is the beauty of the therapeutic journey.
Welcome to a therapeutic space where the past, present, and future converge, laying the foundation for transformative insights and positive change
What’s my aim?
In therapy, our goal is to broaden your self-awareness, shift perspectives, and unravel the complexities of your inner world and the challenges impacting your daily life. Armed with this understanding, we embark on a journey to implement meaningful changes.
Throughout this process, we may encounter patterns, emotions, and thoughts that require delicate exploration. Together, we delve into their significance, reorganizing when necessary to alleviate any suffering or discomfort.
Our conversations will revolve around your emotions, relationships, worries, and memories. It's important to note that the direction and specific goals of our therapy sessions will be tailored to your unique needs, recognizing that everyone's journey is distinct.
During therapy, I apply the creative process as a state of flow, using a variety of creative and conventional techniques with the aim of a more complete understanding of the person and mobilizing the expected changes. If you are interested we can actively involve somatic practice during this process.
To uphold the highest quality of service, my work is under constant supervision.
Your well-being and growth are at the forefront of our collaborative journey. Welcome to a space where change begins.
Irrelevant information and about my personal life.
I was born and raised in Poland, and I have a deep passion for psychology and the transformative power of therapy. I believe in helping others understand themselves better and foster emotional growth.
My interest in conscious movement and yoga highlights the importance of connecting with our bodies for healing. After training as a semi-professional dancer in contemporary and classical dance, I changed my life path to examine the brain and behavior by studying psychology, which has since become my new passion.
In my free time, I enjoy hiking in nature and nurturing my many houseplants. Art and music are also significant to me, as they serve as powerful tools for self-expression. I often use cooking as a form of meditation to unwind after a long day.
