About Magdalena
She has a solid volunteering background, including work with people affected by domestic violence, sexual abuse, homelessness and human trafficking. That experience informs a calm, steady approach in sessions. Magdalena aims to work with what lies beneath conscious thought to help people change how they respond to problems.
Her method draws on client-centred therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, mindfulness and motivational interviewing, together with psychodynamic ideas. In practice this means listening first, helping people notice patterns, and trying practical steps to shift those patterns. She also uses positive psychology and solution-focused elements to identify strengths and short-term goals.
Sessions are conducted in English and Polish. Magdalena holds BACP accreditation, which is recorded as BACP. Her work tends to focus on steady, person-centred conversations that also include concrete techniques when helpful. Clients can expect empathic listening alongside practical strategies.
Magdalena supports people through a wide range of issues such as addiction, body image concerns, codependency, grief around abandonment, anger, and problems with communication or control. Her aim is to help people move from feeling stuck to clearer, manageable next steps.
How therapy approaches work online with Magdalena
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on respectful, non-judgemental listening. The therapist helps people speak about what matters and reflects back their thoughts to encourage clearer self-understanding. This approach is helpful for building trust and exploring emotional difficulties such as low self-esteem or relationship worries.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It uses practical exercises and simple experiments to test unhelpful beliefs and develop alternative responses. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, stress and mood concerns and can give step-by-step tools to manage symptoms.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Magdalena will listen to your goals and try different ways of working together. She aims to make choices collaboratively so the approach fits what you need and prefer.
