About Marzena
Marzena Uphill is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and loss. She supports those coping with relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and worries about intimacy. She also helps with sleep and eating problems, career pressures and major life changes.
Marzena works in a collaborative, respectful way. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and focuses on their strengths. Sessions aim to build self-awareness, confidence and practical coping skills to manage daily challenges.
Background and approach
Her approach draws on a mix of therapies to suit different needs. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and commit to meaningful change. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used to notice and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.
Attachment-based ideas inform work on relationship patterns and feelings of abandonment. Marzena has five years of professional experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She works with adults who want to better understand themselves and make changes in their lives.
Sessions are available in English and Polish. She accepts international clients and offers flexible online formats to fit into busy schedules. The early conversations focus on what matters most to the client and which methods might help.
If someone wants to begin, Marzena encourages a first step of a short matching questionnaire and then arranging sessions that fit personal needs and timing.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work together with the client to decide which methods fit best. That discussion uses the person's goals, struggles and preferences to shape an ongoing plan rather than a fixed recipe.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make counselling easier to fit into life. Video calls are good for a fuller face-to-face feel, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat and messaging suit short check-ins or times when typing feels easier. These options aim to give flexibility so people can choose what works for them and keep therapy consistent alongside work, family and other commitments.
