Drazenka Bjelobaba, BACP

Drazenka Bjelobaba offers support for a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship difficulties, depression and trauma. She also helps with eating and sleeping problems, anger, self-esteem, career stresses, parenting strains and ADHD. Drazenka provides a calm, non-judgemental space and places the person’s priorities at the centre of each session.

Drazenka uses a person-centred approach, so sessions follow what the client brings and what matters most to them. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect present-day patterns. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used when helpful to spot unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of coping.

Her experience includes work with grief, intimacy-related issues, abuse and domestic violence, as well as long-term health conditions and addiction. She also pays attention to problems such as abandonment, codependency and communication difficulties within blended families and breakup situations.

Drazenka is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and works in the United Kingdom. She is able to work in English, Bosnian, Croatian and Serbian, and accepts international clients.

Sessions are tailored to the individual and guided by what a person wants to address. Drazenka aims to make changes feel manageable by setting small, practical steps and being alongside clients as they try new ways of coping.

To begin, a short intake process helps match priorities and plan next steps. People are encouraged to take the first small step when they feel ready, and Drazenka meets them where they are in that process.

How her approaches shape online work

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand why they react a certain way in close relationships and supports building different responses. Client-centred therapy places the person at the heart of the session and prioritises their pace and priorities; it is useful for anyone who needs space to make sense of their feelings. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at thoughts and everyday habits, offering practical steps to test new ways of thinking and behaving, which can be helpful for anxiety, low mood and stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Drazenka will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. That conversation is collaborative and can change as progress is made or new issues emerge.

The biography does not list specific online session types, so please confirm available formats before booking. Many people find online work helpful because it can fit more easily around work, family and travel. Online conversations can make shorter check-ins easier, reduce travel time and allow sessions from different locations. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt attachment, person-centred and cognitive techniques to remote sessions so the work remains focused on practical steps and everyday habits.
