Karolina Allan , BACP, NCPS

Karolina Allan is a counsellor who helps people feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or struggling with stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship problems. She offers clear, practical support aimed at reducing symptoms and helping people regain daily functioning. Karolina speaks English and Lithuanian and works from the United Kingdom.

She uses collaborative techniques that encourage people to learn skills they can use outside sessions. Sessions focus on understandable steps - spotting unhelpful thoughts, testing them, and trying new behaviours. This plain approach is helpful for anxiety, depression and self-esteem concerns.

Karolina has four years of clinical experience and holds BACP and NCPS credentials. She has worked with people who have faced trauma and abuse, issues with attachment, abandonment and adoption backgrounds, and those coping with chronic illness or caregiving stress. Her practice also covers body image, codependency and commitment or communication difficulties.

Therapy is practical and paced to each person. Karolina aims to create a non-judgemental space where people can talk about past events and current worries. Together the therapist and client plan steps to reduce distress and build more effective routines and relationships.

Sessions are available by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Karolina does not currently work with international clients. Costs vary with location and sessions are provided through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

Approaches that guide online counselling

Karolina uses evidence-based, practical techniques to help people manage anxiety and low mood. One common method focuses on recognising unhelpful thoughts and testing them against reality to reduce anxious thinking and improve mood. This approach helps with worry, panic and repetitive negative thinking.

She also teaches behavioural strategies that change patterns of avoidance and increase helpful activity. These steps are simple and aimed at rebuilding routine, improving sleep and easing low mood through small, manageable experiments. Such techniques suit people coping with depression, chronic stress or relationship strain.

Choosing the right approach happens together. Karolina will discuss goals and preferences and then try methods that fit the person's situation. The client and therapist adjust pace and tools as sessions progress to find what works best.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video is useful when visual contact helps the work, phone works well if bandwidth is limited, and text or chat can be easier for quick check-ins or for people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, caregiving or health constraints.
