MISSION
Our mission is to provide an accessible long-term therapy to people whose lives have been affected by traumatic events, mainly to those who were not lucky enough to have received nurturing parenting and caring growing up.
VALUES
Our values are aligned with the values proposed and exercised by the BACP and also by the man, whose work inspired Mirek Polanowski (the founder of ATTC) to become curious about people, especially about the influence and effects of childhood trauma (unfavourable relationships with primary carers) on adult relationships. This man was a paediatrician, pedagogue, writer and a thinker – Janusz Korczak.
The values are:
As a fully qualified and experienced counsellor and a member of the BACP I fully adhere to their code of ethics and good practice. My clinical work is regularly supervised by an experienced BACP registered supervisor.
