Anna Zielinska, BACP

Anna Zielinska is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. She works in English and Polish and accepts international clients. Anna uses a collaborative, respectful approach that encourages people to draw on their own strengths as they work through difficult moments.

Anna practises client-centred therapy, which means sessions focus on the person's experience and pace. She offers a calm space to talk through what matters most, listen carefully, and reflect back what she hears so clients can make clearer choices. Conversations are aimed at helping people feel understood and more able to move forward.

Her background includes four years of professional experience supporting a range of concerns. Anna holds BACP, which identifies her as a member of the professional body for counsellors in the UK. She draws on experience with issues such as abandonment, attachment and communication problems alongside chronic illness, caregiver stress and body image concerns.

Sessions tend to emphasise practical ways to manage symptoms day to day and to improve relationships with oneself and others. Anna aims to help people build on what already works in their lives while exploring new ways to cope and relate.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability. The service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How client-centred therapy adapts to online work

Client-centred therapy is about placing the person's experience at the centre of the work. The counsellor offers empathic listening, reflection and acceptance so the client can explore feelings at their own pace; this approach helps with anxiety, self-esteem and relationship concerns.

In practice Anna aims to create a warm, non-directive space where people can talk through trauma, stress or low mood and gradually find what helps them feel steadier. The counsellor follows the client's lead and adjusts the tone and pace to match their needs. This can be especially useful when dealing with sensitive topics like abuse, attachment or body image.

Finding the best approach is part of the process. Anna will work together with the client to decide what feels right based on their goals and preferences, and she will adapt sessions as understanding grows.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, reduce travel time and allow shorter or more frequent check-ins when needed. Many people find remote sessions help them keep continuity of care when routines change or they are in a different country.
