My name is Małgorzata, but it will certainly be easier for you to call me Gosia (pronounced: Gosha), which is a shorter form of my name. My passion is coaching and helping to resolve conflicts. For almost 10 years I have been working with people individually and in teams, helping them achieve their goals and discover various paths that lead to them.
During my journey, there was a moment when I noticed that the cause of stress for many people is conflicts with others. They limit your perspectives and cause frustration. So I started to explore the topic and, starting with the idea of Nonviolent Communication, I reached mediation.
I help my clients to discover that a difference of opinion can be interesting, that you can approach it in different ways, without necessarily fighting or avoiding confrontation. I explore and share mindfulness techniques because I believe that mindfulness is the first step towards understanding yourself and others.
Please contact me – I will be happy to tell you more about how I work and how I can help.

I am an example that it is worth looking for your professional path, and that changes can be made at different moments in life, using not only formal learning methods, but also learning from colleagues and friends who are happy to share knowledge (I recommend the inspiring autobiography of a social psychologist , Elliot Aronson “Not by Chance Alone. My Life as a Social Psychologist”).
