Anna Zielinska helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. She speaks English and Polish and works with clients across the United Kingdom and internationally. Anna holds BACP accreditation and brings three years of professional experience to her practice.
Anna focuses on listening first and following each person’s lead. She believes the client is the expert on their own life and aims to create a space where people can speak openly and be heard.
Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and paced to the person’s comfort level. Her style is rooted in Client-Centred Therapy, which means Anna prioritises understanding and empathy over pushing solutions. She helps people notice their own strengths and find practical ways to handle difficult moments.
This approach suits problems such as worry, low mood, relationship conflict, and the after-effects of trauma. Anna also works with a wide range of related concerns including abandonment, attachment difficulties, body image, chronic illness and pain, caregiver strain, communication problems, and issues connected to kink and alternative sexual cultures. She adapts sessions to each person’s specific needs and goals.
Practical arrangements include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Costs vary by location and a subscription model is used that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.
Anna aims for honest, calm conversations that leave people with clearer next steps and a better sense of direction. She offers straightforward support and gentle guidance throughout the process.
How Anna’s client-centred approach works online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The therapist follows the person's lead and offers empathy rather than directing the session. This approach helps with anxiety, low mood, relationship stress and the impacts of trauma by making it easier for people to name what matters to them.Anna uses conversational sessions to help people notice their strengths and decide on next steps. She works collaboratively, checking in about what feels useful and adjusting the way she works to fit each person's goals and preferences. Choosing or adapting an approach is part of the work together rather than a one-time decision.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful when seeing facial cues and body language matters. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins, quick reflections or people who want to write rather than speak. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy into work breaks, travel or different time zones while maintaining a steady counselling relationship with registered or accredited professionals.
