Krystyna Jankowska , BACP

Krystyna Jankowska is a counsellor and psychotherapist who focuses on helping people move past traumatic events and reduce anxiety. She speaks English and Polish and can work in either language. Krystyna aims to help clients build more contented lives through steady, collaborative work.

She uses both short-term, solution-focused work and longer open-ended counselling. Short-term work is typically up to twelve sessions and aims to address specific problems. Open-ended counselling is paced according to each person's readiness for change.

In sessions Krystyna aims to form a respectful professional relationship with clear boundaries. She works with clients to understand the roots of symptoms and how those symptoms affect daily life. That understanding guides which approaches to try and how to manage difficult feelings.

Krystyna brings four years of experience and lists approaches including Client-Centred Therapy, cognitive behavioural techniques, emotionally-focused ideas, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP.

She offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging so people can choose what fits their routine. Krystyna works from the United Kingdom and does not take international clients. Costs vary with location and sessions use a cancellable subscription model.

How Krystyna uses evidence-based approaches online

Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens, reflects and helps people make sense of their feelings so they can decide what to change. This approach is helpful when someone needs a steady, accepting space to talk through painful events.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect. It offers practical exercises and experiments to reduce anxiety, change unhelpful patterns and improve sleep or daily functioning. CBT can be useful for stress, anxiety, depression and some behaviour patterns.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on emotional patterns in relationships and within the self. It helps people identify core emotions and shift how they respond when feeling overwhelmed, hurt or disconnected.

Krystyna treats finding the right way of working as a shared process. She will talk with each person about goals, try approaches that feel suitable, and adjust the plan as progress or new issues emerge. That collaborative stance helps tailor sessions to individual needs.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls are close to face-to-face work and let visual cues guide the session. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text messaging suit brief check-ins, journalling-style work or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around life and commitments.
