About Emilia
Emilia Gonczar is a UK-based counsellor with a Master’s in Psychology from the University of Warsaw and 11 years of clinical experience. She holds BACP accreditation and offers therapy in English and Polish. Emilia draws on many years working in psychiatric wards, charities and independent practice to inform her approach.
She aims to help people make sense of difficult feelings and relationships. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on how past experiences shape current patterns.
Background and approach
Emilia pays attention to the body as well as thoughts and emotions. Her work often addresses stress, anxiety and depression. She also supports people with parenting concerns, relationship tensions, grief and trauma-related difficulties.
Practical coping strategies are offered alongside deeper exploration of personal history. Emilia uses approaches such as attachment-based work and psychodynamic thinking to look at how early relationships affect present life. Solution-focused methods are used to set short-term goals and build small, concrete changes.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, known as EMDR, is included for trauma processing when appropriate. People who value a thoughtful, reflective style may find her helpful. She describes a holistic outlook that links mind and body.
Sessions can be conducted by video, phone, live chat or text, and she accepts international clients.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide what fits best for a person's needs and goals. That might mean combining reflective work with short-term, solution-focused steps, or using EMDR alongside talking therapies when trauma is involved.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people see non-verbal cues and have fuller conversations. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat or text-based messaging suits quick check-ins or when someone prefers typing to speaking. These options make it simpler to maintain regular sessions and to try different formats as needs change.
