About Magdalena
She has spent time volunteering at a free counselling service, helping people with depression, anxiety and low self-esteem. Her experience also includes supporting those affected by job loss, financial strain, health problems and family conflict. Magdalena has worked with people who have experienced domestic violence, sexual abuse and trauma, and with individuals who have faced homelessness or substance issues.
Her approach draws on several familiar methods. She uses client-centred principles to listen and reflect what matters to the person in front of her. Cognitive behavioural tools are used to notice and change unhelpful thinking and everyday habits. Mindfulness and positive psychology elements help build coping skills and small daily practices.
Magdalena also brings aspects of motivational interviewing and psychodynamic thinking into sessions when they fit the person’s needs. She emphasises understanding patterns that come from the subconscious and then testing practical changes. Work tends to be collaborative and paced to what the client feels ready for.
Sessions can explore issues such as addiction, relationship and family difficulties, parenting strains, anger, career stress and challenges linked to immigration, body image or guilt and shame. Magdalena works in English and Polish and supports people located in the United Kingdom and internationally.

How Magdalena’s approaches work online and in session
Magdalena uses client-centred therapy to prioritise what each person brings to the room. That means the counsellor listens closely, reflects what matters to the client and helps them lead the pace and focus of the work. This approach is useful for people who need a steady, empathic space to make sense of their feelings.She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at thoughts and everyday habits that keep problems going. CBT offers straightforward techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and to try practical changes in daily life, which can help with anxiety, low mood and stress.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Magdalena will discuss goals and preferences and then suggest methods to try together. Decisions about pace and focus are collaborative, and she adapts methods as the client learns which tools feel most helpful.
The original biography does not list specific online or in-person formats, so please confirm session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example they can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a workday or avoid the need to be on camera if a phone call is preferable. Registered or accredited professionals often use these practical options to help therapy fit into everyday routines.
