Today’s Graduate Spotlight celebrates Monika Bielan-Gąsior, a Holistic Pregnancy & Child Sleep Consultant based in Poland whose work bridges child sleep, nutrition, psychotherapy, positive psychology, and family well-being through a truly holistic approach.
A Passion for Supporting Families
Monika began working as a Child Sleep Consultant in 2018, driven by a desire to help families navigate one of the most important aspects of early childhood—healthy sleep.
As her work evolved, so did her commitment to understanding the many interconnected factors that influence a child’s development and a family’s well-being.
Rather than viewing sleep as an isolated issue, Monika recognized that sleep is deeply connected with nutrition, emotional health, family relationships, and overall lifestyle.
That philosophy continues to guide her work today.
Expanding Her Knowledge
To further broaden her expertise, Monika completed the Holistic Pregnancy & Child Sleep Consultant Certification through the International Parenting & Health Institute, where she expanded her understanding of child sleep through a multidisciplinary, root-cause approach.
She has continued building upon that foundation by earning qualifications as a:
- General Dietitian
- Child Nutrition Specialist
- Certified Parenting Educator and Trainer
- Psychosocial Skills Trainer (Positive Psychology)
- Crisis Interventionist
Monika has also completed training through the Solution-Focused Therapy Center and continues her professional development through the Solution-Focused Therapy certification process. She is a member of the Polish Association of Solution-Focused Therapy Therapists, reflecting her ongoing commitment to evidence-informed, family-centered care.
Holistic Child Sleep Consultant in Poland
Today, Monika provides therapeutic consultations both online and from her office in Ustka, Poland, helping individuals and families navigate challenges through compassionate, evidence-informed support.
She is currently completing the certification process in Solution-Focused Therapy, works as a crisis intervention specialist through the Wellbee psychotherapy platform, and is a member of the Polish Association of Solution-Focused Therapy Therapists.
Throughout every aspect of her work, Monika embraces a holistic philosophy:
When one area of a family’s life is struggling, every area deserves care and attention.
This belief closely reflects the educational philosophy emphasized throughout IPHI, that lasting change often comes from understanding the whole person rather than focusing on a single symptom.
Educating and Empowering Parents
Beyond her private practice, Monika also serves as a Certified Parenting Educator and Trainer with All About Parenting, where she helps provide parents with practical, evidence-informed guidance and family education.
Whether working one-on-one with families, supporting mothers through therapeutic consultations, or educating parents through workshops and training, Monika’s mission remains the same: to empower families with knowledge, confidence, and compassionate support.
Her work reflects a belief that caring for children’s sleep also means caring for parents—and that lasting change happens when the entire family is supported.
Creating a Safe Space for Healing
Through her practice, Holistycznie, Monika provides a supportive environment where individuals and families can feel safe, heard, and empowered.
By integrating child sleep, nutrition, positive psychology, and therapeutic approaches, she helps families move toward healthier routines, stronger relationships, and greater emotional well-being.
Her work is a wonderful example of how multidisciplinary education can create meaningful, lasting change.
