Education EN ↓ 59 episodes

Balance Psychotherapy is a podcast dedicated to discovering effective approaches in psychotherapy, advocating for individualised care that respects the sanctity of each person. It challenges the trend of business models dominating therapy, where therapists may adhere to standardised practices that don't suit everyone. Instead, the podcast champions therapists who prioritise the unique needs of their clients. Hosted by Kasia, the show explores therapeutic methods that work for the individual in her practice.
