Julita Ostrowska, BACP

Julita Ostrowska helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression and relationship concerns. She supports those coping with life changes, low self-esteem, sleep troubles, addictions and career questions. Julita also addresses intimacy issues and trauma or abuse in a practical, down-to-earth way.

Julita works in a gentle, person-focused style. She uses mindfulness, somatic techniques and Jungian ideas alongside client-centred listening. Sessions often include breathing, visualisation and movement to help feelings settle and become clearer. She aims for short, usable steps clients can try between meetings.

Her training includes a four-year postgraduate diploma in counselling and psychotherapy from the Centre of Counselling and Psychotherapy Education in London, and a one-year fundamentals course at the same centre. Julita draws on her experience leading workshops in movement and breathwork and on Yoga Teacher Training she completed in Thailand.

Over six years of practice, she has worked with people from varied backgrounds. She brings lived experience of grief and recovery into her work, which informs her interest in embodiment, dream work and breath techniques. Julita combines ideas from East and West to help clients reconnect with themselves.

Practical support is a focus in her sessions. She helps people break unhelpful patterns, explore attachment and abandonment themes, and address body image, codependency and commitment issues. Sessions aim to help clients find more ease, purpose and healthier ways of relating.

How Julita’s approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding your experience without judgement. It aims to make you feel heard and to help you find your own solutions for issues like anxiety, depression and relationship worries.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches gentle attention to thoughts, sensations and emotions. It uses breathing and awareness exercises that can reduce reactivity and help with stress, sleep problems and overwhelming feelings.

Somatic Therapy brings attention to the body and to physical sensations. It uses movement, breath and grounding techniques to help release stuck patterns and to process trauma or intense emotion.

Deciding which approach fits best is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist will work collaboratively with you to choose methods that match your needs, goals and preferences, and will adapt techniques as you go.

If you want online sessions, please confirm the exact session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow you to practise mindfulness and breathing exercises in your everyday setting. It can also allow simpler check-ins when time is limited or when a session that uses less talking and more body awareness is helpful.
