About Krystyna
Krystyna Dabrowa is a counsellor and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with four years of professional experience. She works with people in the United Kingdom who are coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, grief and anger. Sessions are offered in English and Polish.
Her way of working is based on Client-Centred Therapy. She listens without judgement and helps people talk through what matters to them most. Conversations focus on the client’s experience and on practical steps they can try between sessions.
Krystyna supports people facing life changes and difficult events. She also works with concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, communication problems and difficulties around trust and intimacy. Other areas she addresses include body image, codependency and recovery from domestic violence.
In a session she aims to adapt the pace and topics to the individual. That can mean short-term practical tools for coping with anxiety, or longer work on emotions linked to trauma and grief. She describes her role as someone who listens carefully and helps clarify what a person wants to change.
To begin, people are asked to use the directory’s matching questionnaire and then book an initial session. Fees vary with location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How Client-Centred work can work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting the client’s experience back to them. The counsellor gives space for people to speak about their feelings and priorities while offering responses that help clarify what they want to change. This approach can help with anxiety, low self-esteem, grief and many effects of trauma. Working in this way often means the counsellor follows the client’s pace. That lets conversations move from immediate coping strategies to deeper emotional material when the person is ready. The therapist and client decide together which areas to focus on and what practical steps to try between sessions. Please confirm the current session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online counselling can make it easier to fit meetings around work or home life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it straightforward to keep working with the same counsellor if relocating within the United Kingdom, subject to professional and regulatory guidance for registered or accredited professionals.Areas of expertise
