Zuzanna Horowska is a counsellor with four years' experience based in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP registration and works from a humanistic integrative perspective. She aims to help people who are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in their relationships.

Her approach gives space to thought, sensation and feeling in equal measure. Zuzanna pays attention to how past experiences shape current reactions. She notices unconscious patterns and the ways emotions can live in the body.

Background and approach

This helps people understand why certain situations trigger strong responses and how to shift them over time. She uses a relational style that emphasises the therapeutic connection. Conversations are gently exploratory, focusing on how someone relates to themselves and others.

Practical tools and small exercises may be suggested to support change between sessions. EMDR - Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing - is part of her toolbox for working with trauma and distressing memories. She also draws on psychodynamic ideas, object relations and transactional analysis to offer a rounded way of looking at problems.

Zuzanna has worked with people affected by cancer, trauma and abuse, panic attacks, stress and anxiety. She has experience in settings such as Macmillan Cancer Support and charities focused on mental health and substance use. Her practice aims to help people build clearer communication, firmer self-esteem and more manageable reactions to life change.

How EMDR and relational approaches work online

EMDR - Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing - is used to help people process distressing memories. It usually involves recalling a memory while following simple bilateral stimulation and can reduce the emotional intensity tied to that memory.

Zuzanna also uses a relational, humanistic way of working that looks at how current patterns link to past experience. This approach focuses on building trust in the therapy relationship and noticing thoughts, feelings and bodily responses in the moment.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Zuzanna will talk through options and help decide what fits your needs, goals and comfort level. This is a collaborative process and she adapts methods as progress is made.

Online sessions give practical flexibility. Video calls let you see facial cues and use EMDR-type techniques where appropriate. Phone sessions can be used for shorter check-ins or when a quieter connection is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing to speaking or who want more frequent, brief contact between video appointments.
