About Krystyna
Krystyna Jankowska is a BACP-registered counsellor and psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom with four years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing trauma, anxiety, depression and major life changes, and supports people dealing with relationships, career uncertainty, parenting strain and issues around intimacy. Sessions are offered in English and Polish.
Krystyna offers short-term, solution-focused work of up to twelve sessions as well as open-ended counselling that moves at a client's pace. In sessions she aims to build a clear professional relationship with firm boundaries. Together with the client she looks at the roots of symptoms and how they affect daily life.
Her practice draws on client-centred methods to keep conversation focused on the person's experience. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques are used when looking at patterns of thinking linked to anxiety, stress or depression. Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas inform work on relationship and intimacy concerns.
Mindfulness-based approaches and motivational interviewing often appear in practical exercises, where people practice managing distress or choosing steps towards change. Krystyna explains options and helps people make decisions about what to try next.
She is comfortable working in either English or Polish. Sessions can be arranged by following the site process to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first appointment. Costs vary by location and are paid via a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How Krystyna uses therapeutic approaches online
Krystyna incorporates client-centred work, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and elements of Emotionally-Focused Therapy in her online practice. Client-centred work focuses on the person's experience and priorities, letting conversations steer what matters most. CBT looks at unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns and offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety, stress or low mood. Emotionally-Focused ideas guide work on attachment and intimacy, helping people notice and respond to strong feelings in relationships.Choosing an approach is collaborative. Krystyna will talk about different methods and try approaches that match the client's goals and preferences. She checks how techniques feel in real life and adjusts the plan as sessions progress.
The original biography notes that sessions are offered via an online platform and by phone. Please confirm the current session options before booking so you know what format will be used. Online and phone work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. These practical benefits can help people sustain regular sessions while managing other commitments.
