Karina Kaminski offers a client-centred approach that puts the person's experience first. She draws on cognitive behavioural and mindfulness techniques to help people make practical changes. Karina combines these methods with solution-focused ideas to help set clear, achievable goals.

She is identified as NCPS in her professional details and brings three years of practice in the United Kingdom. Karina helps people cope with stress and anxiety and supports those facing grief or low self-esteem.

Background and approach

She also works with people dealing with parenting strain, relationship problems, anger, depression, and navigating major life changes. Compassion fatigue and caregiver stress are included among her focus areas, along with concerns such as body image and guilt. Her background includes work related to adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, and trauma-related problems such as panic and post-traumatic stress.

She also addresses issues linked to control, dependency, and personality-related difficulties. Karina uses goal-focused conversations alongside practical skills to tackle specific symptoms and everyday challenges. Sessions are presented in straightforward language and emphasise respect and non-judgement.

People can expect an interactive style that listens to what they want to achieve and adapts the plan to fit those aims. Karina aims to support clients as they take the first steps towards change. Practical arrangements and formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.

Sessions form part of a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and appointments are scheduled after completing a short matching questionnaire.

How these approaches work for online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's own experience. The therapist offers empathy and reflection so the client can explore feelings and decide on their priorities. This approach is useful for people wanting space to talk things through and clarify what matters to them.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practising alternative ways of responding. CBT is often chosen for anxiety, panic, low mood and problem-solving in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be decided together. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what works and what the client prefers. This collaborative stance means therapy changes as needs and priorities change.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in suits a work break. Messaging and live chat give flexibility for brief updates, ongoing reflection, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options help make therapy more accessible and easier to fit into busy lives.
