Bartosz joined Water Gap Wellness in February 2023 as a Wellness Technician, shortly transitioning into a Counselor Assistant. Bartosz earned his Bachelor’s degree in psychology from William Paterson University and then his M.S. in Clinical Psychology specializing in Clinical Counseling from Capella University. With over 13 years in healthcare, Bartosz’s experience ranges from hospital to medical and mental health office settings.
Bartosz practices from a strengths-based perspective, which acknowledges that people have the capacity within them to attain positive growth. Bartosz views the therapy space as a sanctuary, an open space to safely uncover and explore anything that may be going on in life.
Bartosz utilizes an empathic approach with clients, recognizing that everyone is a human and is deserving of respect. His approach is based on attachment and systems conceptualizations while he integrates Person-Centered Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy interventions to provide structure in treatment. Bartosz is collaborative, compassionate, and genuinely enjoys his work. His interests include good food/cooking, mixed martial arts, reading, good movies, road trips and spending time with his wife and family. Bartosz’s goal is to provide comprehensive care to clients, to understand their needs, help in their therapeutic process and to provide short-term treatment while focusing on aftercare planning.
