Gabriela Mikitova is a counsellor with nine years of practice in the United Kingdom. She provides individual therapy for adults and also has experience supporting children and teenagers. Gabriela speaks English, Czech and Slovak and holds the NCPS credential.

Gabriela commonly helps people facing anxiety and depression. She also addresses relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief and parenting worries. Clients bring concerns such as sleep problems, anger, low self‑esteem, bipolar mood challenges, ADHD and work or career stress.

Background and approach

Her approach blends several well established methods rather than relying on one set routine. She draws on client‑centred work to listen and build trust. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to spot thinking patterns and try small practical changes.

Mindfulness practices can help with calm and focus. Sessions are intended to be a respectful, non‑judgemental space. Gabriela aims to make therapy genuine and straightforward.

She focuses on what matters most to each person and helps them set achievable goals. People also come to Gabriela for issues like abandonment, codependency, communication difficulties and cultural or discrimination concerns. She supports those dealing with forgiveness, guilt, family problems, money worries and life purpose questions.

The therapy process is adapted to the issue at hand and to the person’s own pace.

How Gabriela’s approaches work online

Client‑centred work focuses on listening and shaping sessions around what matters most to the person. It helps build trust and lets clients set the pace and priorities. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together and introduces practical steps to change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and improve focus.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Gabriela will discuss goals, preferences and what feels useful in early sessions. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as work progresses so therapy stays relevant to the client.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls enable face‑to‑face conversation without travel, while phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can suit short check‑ins, written reflection or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, school or caregiving commitments and to keep continuity when life changes.
