About Anna

Anna Zielinska is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with three years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. Sessions are offered in English and Polish and she accepts international clients.

Anna approaches sessions from a client-centred perspective. She treats the person, not the problem, and focuses on what matters to each individual. In practice this means listening first, then helping people name what feels hard and what they already do to cope.

Conversations are practical and grounded. Anna helps people talk through upsetting events, patterns in relationships, or symptoms such as panic or avoidance. She offers space to reflect on worries about self-worth and to try small steps towards different choices in everyday life.

She also works with a wide range of related concerns that often come up alongside anxiety and relationships. These include issues such as attachment worries, body image, chronic illness and caregiver stress, and communication problems. Anna does not promise quick fixes but focuses on steady, clear progress.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. The initial contact helps clarify goals and practical arrangements before ongoing work begins.

How Anna uses client-centred work online

Client-centred therapy focuses on the client's own perspective. The therapist listens without directing the conversation and supports the person to find their own solutions. This approach can help with anxiety, relationship concerns and low self-esteem by making space for a person to name what matters and try small changes.

Anna emphasises collaboration when choosing an approach. She will discuss what feels most useful, set clear short-term goals, and review progress together. Finding the right way of working is part of the first sessions and can change as needs and goals develop.

Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting appointments around work or caregiving and avoiding travel time. Online work can also make it easier to meet at quieter times or use shorter check-ins when needed. Session formats are not specified in the profile, so please confirm the available online options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals aim to make sessions fit everyday life while attending to presenting concerns.
