Gut-Brain Psychology is an integrated approach that addresses the bidirectional relationship between gastrointestinal health and psychological wellbeing.
Guided by an experienced psychologist, this therapy combines cognitive-behavioural techniques, mindfulness practices, and lifestyle modifications to improve both gut function and mental health simultaneously. This process helps individuals understand and manage the intricate connection between their gut and brain, leading to improved symptom management and overall quality of life.
Clinical studies and real-world evidence have shown significant improvements in symptoms of IBS, IBD, and functional GI disorders, as well as associated anxiety and depression.

Throughout her career, and through first-hand experiences as a mother, Michal developed a deep fascination with the gut-brain axis. This led her to focus her practice on conditions such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, and functional GI disorders.
