Krystyna Jankowska

Krystyna Jankowska is a counsellor who helps people affected by trauma, anxiety and relationship struggles find practical ways to feel steadier. She speaks English and Polish and supports clients at a pace they choose. Her approach suits those looking for short-term work or longer open-ended therapy depending on need.

Krystyna aims to build a clear and respectful working relationship. She listens for the roots of symptoms and looks at how those patterns affect daily life. Together with the client she identifies small, realistic steps to reduce distress and restore a sense of control.

She trained at the University of Greenwich and holds BACP accreditation. Her four years of practice include focused work on grief, addictions, self-esteem and anxiety, alongside areas such as attachment issues and sexual culture concerns. This background informs how she blends different methods to fit each person.

Krystyna commonly uses client-centred listening alongside cognitive behavioural ideas and emotion-focused tools to tackle patterns that keep people stuck. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing also appear in sessions when those approaches match a client's goals. She explains therapeutic choices plainly and checks in about progress.

Sessions are available in English and Polish. Krystyna currently works with people in the United Kingdom and does not take international clients. She asks new clients to pick their preferred pace and to be ready to work collaboratively on practical steps that suit their life.

Approaches used in online counselling and what they do

Krystyna uses client-centred therapy, which means she listens calmly and follows the client’s lead to build understanding and trust. This approach helps people feel heard and make sense of their experience before deciding on changes.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches simple skills to shift unhelpful patterns. CBT can be useful for anxiety, low mood and sleep difficulties.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy appears in her work when relationship or attachment patterns are a focus; it helps people identify and work with strong emotions that shape behaviour.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Krystyna will work with the client to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That choice is reviewed over time so therapy stays practical and relevant.

If you prefer online sessions, confirm the exact session options before booking since formats were not fully specified. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work or family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Ask about language options and pacing when you arrange the first session.
