O Nas
The ISTDP Center consists of a team of professionals working in climatic offices located in a historic building next to Varso Tower and the Central Railway Station. Our team of psychiatrists, psychologists and psychotherapists provide individual therapy, couples therapy and group classes. As a certified IEDTA center for many years we have been conducting supervisions, introductory Pre Core trainings and 3-year CORE ISTDP trainings preparing to work in this therapeutic approach. We also provide advanced training – Advanced Core ISTDP, training for assistants and teachers. In our therapeutic and training practice we place particular emphasis on the AB-ISTDP approach, a variation of ISTDP based on attachment theory. We are extremely concerned with both the uniqueness of each person’s personality structure and their individual attachment patterns formed in the first years of life. We “tailor” the therapeutic process to the needs and abilities of our clients, primarily with love, care, precision and scientific integrity. Our professionals team include individuals with years of experience in the area of adult and child/adolescent development. We are practitioners and researchers coming from a broad community that we have been co-founding for over 5 years within the Polish ISTDP-PL Association. As a team, we participate in the translation, publishing and writing of ISTDP publications, books and textbooks, and we lecture at recognized conferences nationally and internationally.
