About Krystyna

Krystyna Dabrowa welcomes people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and the fallout from trauma or abuse. She presents a calm, respectful approach and aims to make it easier to talk about painful experiences. Krystyna supports people facing life transitions and the knock-on effects those changes can bring.

Krystyna uses a client-centred way of working, which means conversations are shaped around each person rather than a fixed protocol. She focuses on listening, reflecting and helping people identify what matters most to them. This practical style is intended to help people notice small changes that can make daily life feel more manageable.

With four years of professional experience and BACP accreditation, Krystyna blends straightforward dialogue with a compassionate stance. She tailors sessions and short-term plans to fit each person’s situation and goals. Expect a gradual process of exploring hopes, difficulties and coping strategies together.

Her work also covers issues such as body image, relationship problems, grief, anger and difficulties with trust or attachment. She can help people work through feelings of guilt, shame, abandonment and problems linked to domestic violence or infidelity.

Sessions are offered in English and Polish with Krystyna working from the United Kingdom. To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire so appointments can be arranged according to her availability.

How client-centred work adapts to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of each session. It involves open listening, reflecting back what the person says, and inviting them to guide the pace and focus of work. This approach can help with anxiety, depression, stress and challenges around self-esteem by building a trusting, respectful therapeutic relationship.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Krystyna will collaborate with each person to decide how best to proceed, adjusting the style and goals as the relationship develops. She encourages people to say what helps and to shape sessions around their needs and preferences.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the specific session formats before booking as those details are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people choose quieter times and preserve energy that would otherwise be spent travelling, making it simpler to maintain continuity while juggling work or family commitments.
