About Kat

BACP. 3 years' experience. Kat Januchowska helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties and trauma-related concerns, among other issues. She works in English and Polish and is based in the United Kingdom.

Kat offers counselling that focuses on how thoughts, feelings and bodily reactions link together. She uses conversation and attention to present-moment experience to help people notice unhelpful patterns. Sessions look at daily life, recent struggles and past events that still affect how someone acts now.

Her approach aims to increase self-understanding rather than impose techniques. Clients can expect a conversational style that invites reflection on emotions and behaviour. Practical problems such as panic attacks, grief, addiction or work stress are explored alongside relationship and intimacy concerns.

Kat also works with complex issues such as attachment difficulties, adoption and foster care questions, and challenges connected to chronic illness or caregiving stress. She can help with confidence and career-related strain as well as specific concerns like ADHD and bipolar-related struggles.

The first sessions typically focus on what the client wants to change and how counselling can help. People who want to begin are asked to use the site process to match and schedule a first meeting. Sessions operate via a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

She draws on three years of practice to support clients who want clear, discussion-based counselling and help to notice patterns that keep causing pain.

How her approaches are used in online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy places emphasis on listening and on the client's perspective. The counsellor follows what the person brings and reflects back thoughts and feelings to help them understand themselves better. This approach is commonly used for anxiety, low mood and relationship difficulties.

Existential Therapy focuses on meaning, choice and responsibility. It helps people facing life transitions, questions of belonging, and concerns about purpose or loss. Conversations can examine values and how someone wants to live moving forward.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kat will discuss different ways of working and agree with the client which ideas and methods to try. This is a collaborative process that adapts as goals and needs become clearer.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work or childcare, reduce travel time and allow meetings from a familiar location. Some formats also let people choose shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid video when that is preferable. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors, often use these practical arrangements to help therapy fit everyday life.
