About Kat

Kat Januchowska is a counsellor who works with people feeling overwhelmed, stuck or like they do not belong. She supports those asking whether they are enough and who want to build more meaningful connections. Kat offers a calm, direct presence that helps people talk through what is happening now and how habits of thinking and behaving get in the way.

Kat draws on client-centred ways of working to keep the conversation focused on the person's experience. She also uses existential ideas to help people face big questions about meaning, choice and responsibility. Sessions look at everyday thoughts and habits, and how small shifts in routine or mindset can change how someone feels.

Her practice has experience helping with a wide range of concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and relationship issues. Kat also supports people dealing with addiction, self-esteem struggles, parenting strain, career pressure and neurodiversity-related topics like ADHD and autism spectrum issues.

Kat holds BACP accreditation, which is listed as a professional credential. She works in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English and Polish. Her approach is collaborative and down-to-earth, with practical conversation and reflection that aim to make daily life feel more manageable.

If someone wants to try therapy, Kat asks them about current difficulties and goals, then agrees a way of working together. The focus is on helpful, realistic steps and noticing how thoughts and everyday habits shape feelings and behaviour.

How client-centred and existential ideas shape online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own experience. It means the counsellor listens without judgement and follows what matters most to the client. This approach suits people who want time to be heard and to build self-understanding at their own pace.

Existential Therapy looks at big life questions such as meaning, choice and responsibility. It helps when someone is wondering about identity, purpose or how to cope with change. This approach can be useful for people facing transitions, loss or long-term uncertainty.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about what feels useful and adapt sessions to the person's goals and preferences. That decision is made together and can change over time as needs evolve.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how Kat offers sessions. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around family, work and travel. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to attend from different locations. Many people find this flexibility helps them sustain regular sessions while handling everyday demands.
