PSYCHOTHERAPY & CLINICAL HYPNOTHERAPY
LEEDS & ONLINE ACROSS THE UK
For the woman
behind the
strong one.
Therapy for the pressure to achieve, be perfect and keep coping on your own.
Fine on the outside.
Exhausted on the inside.
1
Achievement
You reach the goal, then move the finish line. There is always another way you should be doing better.
3
Self-reliance
You keep going, even when you're struggling. Asking for help feels harder than doing it all yourself.
2
Perfection
You scrutinise how you look, how you perform or how you come across. Getting it right rarely brings lasting relief.
4
People-pleasing
You make room for everyone else's needs, then struggle to recognise or express your own.
You're doing everything right. So why does it still feel like this?
On the surface, your life looks successful.
Yet underneath, there’s a quiet exhaustion. A sense of pressure. A feeling that something essential is missing.
This isn’t because you’re broken.
It’s because old emotional patterns and protective parts are still shaping how you relate to yourself and others.
Here, healing is approached differently - where psychotherapy, hypnotherapy and inner child work meet depth, presence and precision.
My work as a therapist grew out of my own journey of relational healing
I’m Dorota - a fully qualified, BACP-registered relational psychotherapist and GHR-registered hypnotherapist, specialising in healing inner child wounds and helping women create conscious, connected relationships with themselves and others.
For years, I looked like I had it all together - but inside, I struggled with self-doubt, disconnection and a deep fear that I wasn’t enough unless I was perfect.
I numbed how I felt. I couldn’t access my joy or my voice. I didn’t yet know what it meant to feel truly safe… within myself.
Everything changed when I stopped fixing and started listening. When I began to meet the parts of me I had buried and tend to them with love.
Now, I guide emotionally intelligent, high-functioning women through that same deep process of healing:
To live from a place of wholeness, not survival. If that sounds like what your heart’s been searching for…
You’re in the right place.

“Trauma creates change you don’t choose. Healing is about creating change you do choose.”
- Michelle Rosenthal
My "Embodied Secure Self Method" ™
Healing isn’t about becoming someone new - it’s about returning to yourself.
The Embodied Secure Self Method™ supports deep reconnection with safety, authenticity and inner coherence.
This integrative approach blends neuroscience, attachment theory, hypnotherapy and parts work to gently rewire the nervous system, heal inner child patterns and transform protective strategies that no longer serve you.
It’s where science meets soul and where healing becomes embodiment.
Safety & Regulation
nervous system grounding and co-regulation.
Connection & Compassion
inner-child relationship and secure self-attachment.
Reprogramming & Reparenting
hypnotherapy, parts work, visualisation.
Integration & Embodiment
identity realignment, rituals, daily practices.
Expansion & Wholeness
self-leadership, purpose, boundaries, freedom.

Client experiences
"After years of having low self esteem, low self belief and low confidence thinking therapy would never help, along came Dorota and proved me wrong. She has saved my soul and I cannot thank her enough for the new lease of life she has given me."
- Jessica
Self-esteem, confidence and identity
"Having tried other therapists, CBT experts and life coaches I made no improvements until I worked with Dorota. I am a different person from who I was a year ago and I have her to thank for that."
- Mia
Transformation after previous therapy hadn't worked
"I now understand and accept myself and my needs, have healthier relationships and am able to set boundaries and make better choices as a result. Trust me when I say that you will never make a better investment than this."
- Lianne
Childhood wounds, relationships, boundaries
What clients experience through this work
Who This Work Is For
This work is for emotionally intelligent women seeking depth and lasting change.
You may recognise yourself if you…
✔ Feel successful on the outside, but secretly exhausted inside.
✔ Keep striving, giving and performing, yet rarely feel fulfilled.
✔ Struggle to rest, say no or feel genuinely safe in your body.
✔ Have done therapy or coaching before, but long for deeper change.
✔ Are ready to invest time, energy and presence in true transformation.
This is not for those seeking a quick fix.
It’s for women ready to meet themselves fully with compassion, honesty and courage.
My Location
