Karolina Orenczak, BACP

Karolina draws on attachment-based work to help people notice how early relationships shape current feelings and reactions. This approach focuses on understanding relationship patterns and learning new ways to feel safer in interactions, which can ease depression and intimacy problems.

She also uses client-centred therapy, which emphasises empathic listening and supporting each person’s own process. That means sessions often begin by following what matters most to the person and building coping skills from there. Mindfulness techniques are added to help manage anxiety, stress and intrusive thoughts by training attention and breathing in simple, practical ways.

Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. Karolina works collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person’s goals and preferences. She checks in about what is helping and adjusts the plan as needed so the work stays relevant and manageable.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and exercises, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed, and chat or messaging can suit shorter updates or people who prefer writing. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family and daily life.
