Paulina GolozdBACP

Paulina Golozd is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 15 years of professional experience. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, depression and concentration challenges. She also has an interest in pregnancy and childbirth related concerns and women's issues. Sessions are offered in English and Polish. Paulina aims to treat people with respect, sensitivity and compassion. She adapts conversations and plans to each person's needs so care feels relevant and practical. She focuses on everyday strategies as well as deeper emotional work depending on what someone wants to address. Her approach starts with listening to the situation and priorities. From there she and the client agree small, manageable steps to try between sessions. These might include coping techniques, ways to reduce overwhelm, or exercises to improve focus and mood. Over her career she has worked with people dealing with attachment worries, body image, chronic illness and pain, isolation and grief from separation. She also supports those living with obsessive thoughts, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress and issues connected to sexuality and identity. People can expect a direct but warm manner in sessions, with practical suggestions and space to talk through feelings. Paulina describes beginning therapy as a process, and she offers support while people explore changes they want to make. To start, clients use the site's Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to the therapist's availability.

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Paulina uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people manage symptoms and make steady changes. One common approach focuses on building practical coping skills for anxiety and panic - learning breathing and grounding steps and testing small behavioural changes to reduce intensity over time. Another approach involves looking at mood, focus and unhelpful thinking patterns and trying structured exercises to shift those patterns and improve daily functioning. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Paulina will listen to goals, try options, and check in about what feels useful. She works collaboratively so the client helps decide which techniques to keep, adapt or stop. The original biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when days are tight. It can also let people access therapy across locations, including international clients, while the therapist and client agree a plan that suits their practical needs.
