About me and my therapy practice

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or struggling to cope with life's challenges? Taking the first step to seek support is a brave and courageous decision. You don't have to face your struggles alone. We all need help from time to time, and I'm here to offer you the support and guidance you need to navigate through these difficult times.

I'm Karolina, a BACP registered therapist offering a collaborative approach to help individuals aged 16 and above. Through a safe and non-judgmental space, we'll work together to explore your experiences, overcome challenges, and find the life you want to live. I specialise in supporting clients with depression, anxiety, and trauma using a flexible approach based on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).

My goal is to empower you to become your own therapist, harnessing your strengths to navigate life's challenges.

With unconditional acceptance and a focus on your unique needs, we'll work towards improving your mental well-being and quality of life. Together, we can build the life you desire and develop the tools and resilience needed to face future obstacles with confidence and clarity. Therapy can be incredibly helpful if you believe in the process and are open to change.

As a qualified therapist, I have experience in supporting individuals with a wide range of mental health concerns and life challenges. 


 


Practice description

I use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy as my main approach to providing support for my clients.

CBT helps you learn more helpful ways of thinking and reacting in everyday situations. By changing the way you think and what you do, you can begin to feel better.

Unlike some other talking therapies, CBT focuses on your current challenges rather than on your past experiences. It aims to improve your state of mind by teaching you to spot the links between your thoughts, actions, and feelings. This approach empowers you to take control of your thoughts and reactions, leading to positive changes in your life.

In our sessions, you will work closely with me to identify new ways of dealing with problems and set achievable goals for what you want to change. Through this collaborative process, you'll gain valuable tools and strategies to manage your mental health and improve your overall well-being.

CBT can be incredibly successful in helping you feel more in control of your life. By focusing on the present and learning to identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviours, you can experience lasting improvements in your mental health and quality of life.

Throughout our work together, I will provide a supportive, non-judgmental space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings. We'll celebrate your progress and work through any setbacks together, ensuring that you have the support and guidance you need to achieve your goals and lead a happier, more fulfilling life.

My first session

Initial Consultation

To begin, I offer a short 15-minute phone call or video call consultation. During this time, we'll discuss what brings you to counselling and how I can support you. This is also an opportunity for us to get to know each other and determine if we are a good fit to work together. There is no obligation to continue with therapy after this initial consultation.

First Session

The first session is an assessment session where I will take the time to understand your current situation, feelings, and experiences. This will allow me to create a personalised therapeutic plan tailored to your specific needs and goals. During this session, we'll delve deeper into your challenges and explore how therapy can help you navigate them.
