Anna Zielinska, BACP

Anna Zielinska is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. She works in English and Polish and accepts international clients. Anna uses a collaborative style that centres the person's own experience and strengths.

In sessions she listens closely and offers practical ways to manage immediate difficulties. Conversations focus on what matters most to the client and on small, workable steps between meetings. Anna aims to create a calm space where people can talk through painful memories or current pressures without being rushed.

Her approach draws on client-centred therapy, so the client’s perspective guides the pace and focus of work. That means Anna follows what the client brings, reflects back what she hears, and helps people make sense of their feelings. This style suits concerns such as attachment issues, communication problems, and the emotional impact of chronic illness.

She also supports people dealing with specific challenges like abandonment, body image, caregiver stress, and commitment issues. Work may include looking at how past experiences shape current patterns and trying out different ways of relating to others.

With three years of professional experience and BACP recognition, Anna balances empathy with straightforward tools. To begin, people complete a short questionnaire and then arrange sessions that fit their schedule. The subscription model used for sessions can be cancelled at any time.

How client-centred work adapts to online therapy

Client-centred therapy focuses on the person’s own experience and strengths. In practice this means the counsellor listens carefully, mirrors what is said, and follows the client’s lead on topics and pace. This approach helps with concerns like anxiety, low self-esteem and relationship patterns by prioritising the client’s priorities and building understanding.

Because the work is led by the client, the therapist can adapt tone and techniques online to suit each person. That might mean slower check-ins, focusing on immediate coping steps, or spending time on how past experiences influence current reactions. Deciding which way to work is a collaborative process between therapist and client.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current session options before booking. The practical benefits of online sessions can include fitting meetings into a busy week, reducing travel time, and choosing shorter or longer check-ins to match a work break or a particular need. Many people find remote work helps maintain continuity of care when life is busy or when they are based overseas, and the therapist will discuss what format best fits the client’s goals and daily routine.
