I’m Margo Kapala, an online psychotherapist, philosopher and traveler through the fractal nature of human emotions and minds
I’m a professional psychotherapist from Poland with over 10 years of experience. My inner calling led me to Peru, where I’ve discovered the profound potential of plant medicine.
My mission is to integrate a scientific approach, leveraging practical knowledge, experience, and clinical psychotherapy tools, with wisdom from psychedelics—particularly insights from Amazonian shamanism and methods of working with sacred plants.

What my clients write
It’s hard to describe the course of the therapy. With each session, the strength of my demons diminishes until, finally, I experience mental clarity. The meetings helped me gain momentum and finally set the right course. Now, I feel that I have the power to do it. I highly recommend it, even though the beginning was tough and I approached it with skepticism.
