About Me

My name is Agnieszka Hatton-Jones. I am an integrative psychotherapist, couples therapist, and psychologist. I provide psychotherapy for adults as well as therapy for couples and marriages. I work with LGBTQ+ clients. I completed a four-year psychotherapy training program at the Professional School of Psychotherapy, Institute of Health Psychology in Warsaw, accredited by the Polish Psychological Association and the Polish Psychiatric Association. I also completed a clinical internship at the OgrĂłd Psychotherapy Center at the Institute of Health Psychology. I gained expertise in couples therapy both through the Couples Psychological Support Program at the Institute of Health Psychology of the Polish Psychological Association and during comprehensive training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), including Externship and Core Skills. I earned my psychology degree from the University of Warsaw. To ensure the quality of my work, I regularly participate in supervision with certified supervisors. I am a member of the Polish Association for Integrative Psychotherapy and the Polish EFT Association.

Individual Therapy

I offer individual psychotherapy for adults who are seeking personal growth, emotional balance, and support in navigating life’s challenges. As an integrative therapist, I draw on a range of approaches and tailor them to your unique needs, so that our work together feels flexible and responsive rather than “one-size-fits-all.” At the beginning of therapy, we take time to clarify your goals and what you hope to achieve, and we return to them throughout our work to guide the process. In our sessions, we explore your thoughts, emotions, and patterns of behavior in a safe and confidential space. This can help you gain a deeper understanding of yourself, uncover the roots of difficulties, and develop practical strategies for coping with stress, relationships, and change. My aim is not only to support you in reducing distress, but also to strengthen your resilience, reconnect you with your values, and help you move toward a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Individual Therapy

Couples Therapy

Couples Therapy

Couples therapy offers a supportive and structured environment where partners can address relationship challenges, improve communication, and strengthen their emotional connection. In our work together, I help couples identify unhelpful patterns, resolve conflicts, and build a relationship that feels healthier, more resilient, and more fulfilling. My approach is grounded in attachment theory and draws on the model developed by Dr. Sue Johnson, known as Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT). This evidence-based method is designed to help partners create a deeper bond and a stronger sense of safety and security in their relationship. The process involves exploring underlying emotions, learning new ways to share personal experiences with one another, and fostering conditions of trust and openness. Through this, couples can move beyond cycles of disconnection and begin to experience greater intimacy, mutual understanding, and lasting closeness.

Online Therapy

Online therapy offers the same professional support as in-person sessions, but from the comfort of your own space. It is ideal for clients with busy schedules, mobility challenges, or those living outside Warsaw. Sessions are secure, confidential, and tailored to your individual needs. To make the most of your online session, please try to ensure you have a quiet and private space where you feel comfortable and won’t be interrupted. It’s important that you can focus fully on yourself during this time. For couples therapy, it’s important that both partners join the session from the same space. This helps us work together more effectively and ensures you both feel equally present in the process.

Common Misconceptions About Boundaries in Relationships

Blog

The word “boundaries” often stirs up confusion in relationships. Some people hear it and imagine rules, restrictions, or ultimatums. Others think boundaries are a way of controlling another person’s behavior. But that’s not what boundaries are about. Boundaries aren’t about what the other person must do. They’re about what I will do, based on my needs and values. They’re a way of taking responsibility for myself and inviting others into a healthier, clearer dynamic. Let’s unpack a few of the most common misconceptions:

Misconception 1: Boundaries are demands. I used to think setting a boundary meant telling someone else what to stop doing. For example, I once told a partner, “You can’t talk to me like that.” Unsurprisingly, it didn’t go well—it sounded like an order. What worked better was reframing it: “If shouting starts, I’ll step away from the conversation until we can talk calmly.” Same issue, different approach. The difference? A demand focuses on controlling the other person. A boundary focuses on how I’ll respond. Misconception 2: Boundaries guarantee closeness. It’s tempting to believe that setting boundaries will automatically improve a relationship. In truth, boundaries reveal whether a relationship can meet your needs. For example: “I want intimacy and closeness in a relationship, but if you’re away most of the time, that won’t work for me.” That’s not about blaming the other person—it’s simply recognizing a mismatch. Boundaries can clarify whether the connection is sustainable.

Misconception 3: Boundaries are punishments. Another myth is that boundaries are a way of punishing someone. In reality, they’re about self-care. Saying, “I won’t continue a conversation if insults are involved,” isn’t about teaching someone a lesson—it’s about protecting your own emotional well-being. Misconception 4: Boundaries are rigid walls. It’s also common to think that once a boundary is set, it’s fixed forever. But boundaries can evolve as circumstances and relationships change. What stays consistent is the principle: I take responsibility for myself, rather than trying to control others. Boundaries are less about drawing lines in the sand and more about clarity—knowing what you need, what you can offer, and how you’ll act when those needs aren’t met. They aren’t rules for others to follow but a compass for how you engage in relationships. If you find it difficult to identify or communicate your boundaries, therapy can be a powerful support. A therapist can help you untangle old patterns, discover what you truly need, and practice healthier ways of expressing it. The more you understand yourself, the easier it becomes to create relationships built on respect, clarity, and genuine closeness.

How to improve sleep quality

✦ ✦ ✦

Good sleep is essential for both mental and physical health. In this article, we explore practical techniques to improve sleep quality and help you wake up feeling refreshed and energized. One of the most important steps toward better sleep is maintaining a consistent sleep schedule. Going to bed and waking up at roughly the same times every day helps regulate your body’s internal clock, making it easier to fall asleep and wake up naturally. Even small changes on weekends can disrupt this rhythm, leaving you groggy or making it harder to get back on track during the week. By sticking to a steady routine, your body gradually learns when to wind down and when to wake, making restful sleep a more predictable and achievable goal. Creating a comfortable sleep environment is equally important. A cool, quiet, and dark bedroom promotes relaxation and signals to your body that it’s time to rest. Consider using blackout curtains, eye masks, or white-noise machines to minimize disturbances, and make sure your mattress and bedding provide the support and comfort you need. Simple adjustments, such as keeping the room well-ventilated or investing in a supportive pillow, can have a surprisingly significant impact on how restorative your sleep feels. Your habits before bedtime also play a crucial role. Exposure to screens from phones, computers, and TVs can interfere with the production of melatonin, the hormone that tells your body it’s time to sleep. If using electronic devices in the evening is unavoidable, try turning on night mode or blue-light filters to reduce disruption. Ideally, set aside at least 30 to 60 minutes before bed for relaxing activities, such as reading, listening to calming music, or practicing gentle mindfulness exercises. These routines help slow your mind and prepare your body for a deeper, more restorative rest. What you eat and drink in the hours leading up to bedtime matters as well. Caffeine and energy drinks should be avoided in the late afternoon and evening, as they can make it difficult to fall asleep. While alcohol may initially create drowsiness, it often disrupts deeper stages of sleep, leaving you tired in the morning. Heavy or rich meals consumed shortly before bed can cause discomfort and indigestion, so aim for a lighter dinner several hours before bedtime. Drinking a warm, caffeine-free beverage such as herbal tea can be a soothing addition to your evening routine. Regular physical activity can also significantly improve sleep quality. Exercise helps regulate your body’s natural rhythms and can increase the amount of restorative deep sleep you get each night. However, timing matters: vigorous workouts right before bed may energize you rather than relax you. Gentle stretching, yoga, or a short evening walk can release tension and signal to your body that it’s time to wind down, creating a smooth transition from daytime activity to nighttime rest. Finally, establishing a calming bedtime routine can make a noticeable difference. Simple rituals such as taking a warm shower or bath, practicing deep breathing exercises, meditating, or reading can help your mind and body recognize that it’s time to sleep. Even small, consistent cues, like dimming the lights or listening to soft music for ten minutes, can reinforce this signal and help you fall asleep more easily. Improving sleep quality doesn’t require radical changes to your lifestyle. By creating a consistent sleep schedule, optimizing your bedroom environment, moderating screen time, watching what and when you eat, staying physically active, and incorporating simple evening rituals, you can enhance your nightly rest and wake up feeling more energized and focused. Over time, these small but consistent adjustments can have a profound impact on your overall well-being, leaving you better equipped to handle daily challenges and enjoy each day to the fullest.
