“I have been in psychotherapy with Agata over the time of two years. Throughout that time she has been extremely attentive, patient and knowledgeable, addressing all necessary knowledge and teaching me mechanisms to help me find myself.
She is my life savior who I will remember until my last days.
Agata is extraordinarily punctual and flexible with the schedule.
On top of every other aspects, her calm voice resonates in my head, guiding me every time when I need it.
All sessions were conducted in polish language.
Highly recommended!

Getting to know Agata Dyrda-Gacek
I believe successful psychotherapy relies on a unique relationship between a client and a therapist that is jointly created; together we discover and nurture the client's needs. I provide insight-oriented therapy with the belief that you, the client, are the expert on your own life. My role is to provide guidance and understanding of your journey. I believe in authenticity in the therapeutic relationship, where I create a safe, warm and empathetic environment for exploration of past and present emotional struggles and psychological blockages to lead you toward your own healing and personal growth.
I help to address a variety of challenges, including depression, anxiety and fears, childhood and sexual trauma, self-esteem issues, addiction, gambling disorders, relationship problems, identity issues and loneliness, adjustment to life's transitions, work stress, creativity blocks; adult children of alcoholics/addicts and individuals in advanced sobriety are welcome.
I am a graduate of Columbia University School of Social Work with two years post-graduate training in Relational Self-Psychology. A licensed clinical social worker/psychotherapist, I am also credentialed in substance abuse and gambling treatment. I work with adults, adolescents, couples and families.

Agata is the best of the best. She is a very skilled clinician, and well as empathetic, kind, and supportive.
I have worked with Agata for over seven years. She is consistent with her scheduling and always punctual and present. With her support, I have been sober from alcohol since 2016 and sober from smoking for about six months now. Her approach is collaborative and insightful. She has helped me explore childhood traumas at my pace, and has educated me about addiction, relapse, etc.
I am so thankful for Agata!!!

I have been seeing Agata now for almost 6 years, and I cannot say enough good things about her! Agata is always kind, positive, and insightful. She has guided me and been a pillar of support through many different challenges that have come up during these years. Agata always asks important questions that have helped me understand my tendencies, behaviors, and reactions in certain situations. These conversations with her have challenged me to consider alternate ways of confronting the situations and helping me to reframe my mindset in certain cases as well. More specifically, I have suffered for a long time from anxiety, and Agata has given me tools to handle these feelings and often times help me overcome them. These years of therapy with Ágata have ultimately led me to being more at peace with who I am, making empowering decisions for myself, and feeling confident when facing really tough situations because I have learned to trust myself! I am really so thankful for our relationship!

I started seeing Agata about 5 years ago, after I lost my mom to cancer. We meet virtually now, as we live in different states, but pre-pandemic I went into her office. While I miss working with her in-person, it's not surprising that she's just as impactful when I'm dialing in from my phone. (that said, whoever gets to see her in her office is very lucky :)
Agata is supportive, non-judgmental and empowering. She has helped me to uncover unhealthy behaviors/relationships at work, and in my personal life, and equipped me with the tools necessary to overcome them. She challenges me to look at and think about things differently, and I look forward to our weekly sessions. Agata is a wonderful therapist, I highly recommend!

I've been seeing Agara Dyrda for a few years now and I'm a satisfied customer. I've had the pleasure of receiving therapy from her both in person and virtually. I am a professional myself and she has been so helpful in me setting and attaining my goals.
I would definitely recommend. Great Therapist
