Anna Zielinska

Anna Zielinska is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people with stress, anxiety, relationship worries, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. She works from the view that each person knows their own story best and brings their own strengths to the room. Anna speaks English and Polish and aims to make first steps into therapy straightforward and respectful.

Anna keeps sessions practical and focused on what matters most to the person in front of her. She listens without judging and reflects back what she hears to help people make sense of difficult feelings. Conversations explore everyday patterns, relationships and how past experiences affect current choices.

Her approach leans on Client-Centred Therapy, so the work is driven by the client’s priorities and pace. That means Anna attends to what the client wants to change, then supports them to find ways forward that fit their life. She encourages small, realistic steps that build confidence over time.

Anna has three years of professional experience and holds BACP, which indicates registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She has worked with people facing a wide range of concerns, including chronic illness, caregiver stress, autism and attachment issues, as well as body image and communication problems.

Client-centred approaches and online therapy

Anna uses Client-Centred Therapy, which involves listening carefully and following the client’s lead to help them make sense of their experiences. This approach is helpful for issues such as low self-esteem, relationship worries, anxiety and reactions to past trauma because it focuses on the person’s own goals and pace.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs, goals and preferences and together decide which way of working feels most useful. That collaborative planning can change over time as priorities shift.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, such as reducing travel time and allowing sessions between other commitments. If you are considering remote work, confirm the specific session formats available before booking so you know how appointments will be conducted. A short initial session can help test whether the chosen format and Client-Centred way of working feel like a good match.
