Marcin Maciejewski, BACP

Marcin Maciejewski is a BACP counsellor working in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. He has spent over a decade in related therapeutic settings, including academic mentoring and hospice care. Marcin aims to make the first steps into therapy less daunting and more manageable for people seeking support.

He has accumulated around three thousand hours helping people face depression, trauma and relationship difficulties. Marcin also has experience supporting people dealing with grief, complex loss, and challenges linked to abandonment, attachment and family of origin issues. His work has covered a wide range of concerns such as body image, eating-related issues, caregiver stress and communication problems.

Marcin draws on several evidence-based techniques and human-centred approaches to shape sessions. He places strong emphasis on the working relationship and building trust, and mixes practical tools into the work when agreed with the person. Examples of tools he uses include worksheets, mood charts, journalling, genograms and movement or creative expression.

Sessions typically follow a rhythm negotiated with each person, and regular weekly meetings are often useful. He keeps active professional support through supervision and peer groups to maintain standards and reflect on practice. Marcin also notes his own experience of therapy, which informs how he accompanies others through the process.

People considering therapy can expect straightforward conversations about goals and practical steps to try between sessions. International clients may be accepted and sessions are conducted in English. Confirm current session options before booking.

Approaches that guide online therapeutic work

Marcin draws on human-centred and experiential approaches together with techniques from mindfulness-informed cognitive work. Person-centred work focuses on the relationship and on listening closely to what matters to each person, helping people feel heard and understood. Mindfulness-informed cognitive techniques offer simple practices to notice thoughts and moods and build more helpful daily routines. Experiential methods such as movement, art or focusing invite people to engage with feelings in different ways, which can be useful for grief, trauma and attachment issues.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process and is decided together. Marcin treats this as a collaborative task - he will talk about options, try different ways of working and adjust the approach to fit someone’s goals and preferences. The emphasis is on practical steps you can try between sessions and on building a working relationship that supports progress.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. In general, online work can make fitting therapy into a busy life easier by reducing travel time and allowing meetings from different locations. Some methods transfer well to remote sessions, such as guided mindfulness, worksheet-based tasks and verbal reflection, while creative or movement-based activities can be adapted to shorter check-ins or homework-style exercises to fit into your day.
