Anna Zielinska, BACP

Anna Zielinska is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. She speaks English and Polish and works with people across the United Kingdom and internationally. Anna approaches therapy in a straightforward way that aims to make starting therapy easier for worried parents and busy adults.

Anna uses a client-centred style that puts the person's experience at the centre of sessions. She treats the client as the expert in their own life and helps them notice strengths they can use. Conversations are practical and focused on the everyday thoughts and habits that shape mood and behaviour.

In sessions Anna listens, reflects, and asks questions that help people see patterns. She will support someone in breaking down problems into manageable steps. This can include looking at how thinking affects actions and how small habit changes can reduce stress and anxiety.

With three years of professional experience and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), Anna offers a calm, respectful presence. She aims for clear goals and simple tools people can use between appointments. Her work often addresses issues such as attachment, body image, caring responsibilities, chronic illness, and communication problems.

To begin, a prospective client completes a short matching questionnaire and then schedules sessions according to the therapist's availability. The service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How client-centred work translates to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening to the person's experience and helping them use their own strengths. In practice this means the counsellor reflects what is said, asks open questions, and supports people to make sense of their thoughts and habits. It is helpful for issues like low self-esteem, anxiety, relationship concerns and reactions after trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through options and adapt methods to the individual's needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where the person and counsellor decide what feels most helpful over time.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online working can make fitting therapy into everyday life easier by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins around work or caregiving, and letting people join from different locations. For some, speaking without video can be less demanding, while for others a full conversation on camera helps build connection. Registered or accredited professionals can explain which option will best suit practical needs and therapeutic aims during the initial matching and scheduling steps.
