My name is Agnieszka Layla Nisio.

I am a psychologist by education (I studied Psychology at the Jagiellonian University in Kraków), a psychotherapist (I completed a 5-year Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Program at Collegium Medicum in Kraków), and a psychodietitian (postgraduate studies at WSNS in Lublin). I have also completed training in Ayurvedic Psychology (Agni Ayurveda) and the Basics of Multidimensional Communication (LAN by Liza Sarna).

Gaining experience is just as important to me as acquiring knowledge, which is why—as a participant—I have attended and continue to attend numerous trainings and personal development workshops. Through this, I have come to understand that my own resources and energy are fundamental in helping others heal.

The word “diversity” describes my professional practice well. I have worked with elderly individuals, including those in terminal conditions (Long-Term Medical Care Facility), children (Psychological and Pedagogical Counseling Center), adolescents (secondary school), and women in the perinatal period (Childbirth School and Neonatal & Gynecological Ward). Currently, I work as a psychotherapist at a Clinical Psychology Clinic and a Mental Health Center within a public healthcare institution.

I take a holistic approach to therapy, which means I consider all levels of human functioning—body, mind, emotions, and soul. I also view them through the lens of energy (energy work). In my practice, I draw on the theories and approaches of Joe Dispenza, Liza Hern, Ananda Rudra, Carl Gustav Jung, and Gabor Maté.

I love incorporating symbols, myths, shamanic elements, art, the revitalizing and grounding power of contact with nature, and breathwork into the therapeutic process. I remain open to the richness of life’s experiences—at the right moments, I encounter new sources of inspiration. I first use them to transform myself and deepen my own truth (as this is a lifelong process), and then as therapeutic tools in my work with clients.

I practice meditation, conscious breathing, and mindfulness. As long as I can remember, spirituality has played an important role in my life. My roots are in Christianity (Catholicism), but over the years I have also drawn—and continue to draw—from other religious and spiritual traditions. I do not believe in rigid boundaries; my contemplative mind seeks unity rather than division. My heart senses that everything is One. Since childhood, I have had a tendency to connect seemingly very different worlds and perspectives. This is one of the values I now bring into my understanding of people and into therapy.

My relationship with the body has also always been important to me. For many years, it was a difficult one, but now I see that every stage of that journey through the dark valley was necessary. Today, I delight in my femininity, I see my body as a wise ally, and I am increasingly able to read and understand the messages it gives me.

I am passionate about sports, literature, art (I create myself), travel, and more recently, shamanism and Tantra.

I am a mother of three children, who inspire me every day to reach for the best version of myself.
