About Karolina

Karolina Puspacherova is a counsellor who brings four years of clinical experience to her work with people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. She works with adults on relationship worries, parenting concerns and the strain of life changes. Karolina also supports those dealing with trauma, grief, sleep and eating difficulties, and questions around intimacy and sexual identity.

Her style is warm and non-judgemental. Sessions are collaborative and paced to the individual.

Background and approach

Karolina aims to create space for people to say what they really mean, and to make sense of feelings that feel overwhelming. She draws on client-centred ideas that focus on the person's own goals and experience, together with cognitive behavioural techniques to spot patterns of thinking and try new behaviours.

Psychodynamic and existential ideas are used where background stories or meaning questions seem important, and solution-focused tools help when people want practical, short-term change. Karolina is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and practises from the United Kingdom. She offers sessions in English and accepts clients internationally.

Session lengths and formats vary to match different needs and lifestyles. People who choose to work with Karolina often want a calm, reflective space and clear steps to try between sessions. She will listen, help clarify priorities and co-create small, realistic plans to test in daily life.

If parenting issues are part of the picture, she supports parents to manage stress and practical challenges while thinking about their own wellbeing.

Online support

How Karolina works online and what to expect

Karolina uses client-centred principles that focus on the person's own goals and lived experience. This approach is about listening carefully, reflecting what matters to you and helping you decide the direction of the work. It suits people who want a supportive, person-driven space to talk through difficulties.

She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. CBT offers practical steps to test between sessions and can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep and unhelpful routines. These two approaches together allow longer reflection and short-term tools to be used as needed.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Karolina will talk with you about what you hope to achieve and will adapt methods to match your goals and preferences. You will decide together whether to focus on understanding past patterns, trying behavioural experiments, or a mix of both.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video suits deeper conversations, phone can be better when bandwidth is limited, live chat is helpful for shorter check-ins, and messaging allows ongoing, brief contact between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties and travel.
