About Magdalena

Magdalena Seremak-Kaczmarczyk trained in counselling and positive psychology and holds a BACP credential. She has three years of professional experience and has worked alongside voluntary services for several years. Magdalena speaks English and Polish and offers help for people facing a wide range of life stresses and emotional struggles.

Magdalena keeps sessions straightforward and people-centred. She aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk about what matters to them.

Background and approach

Her work often focuses on issues such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, addiction, trauma and family or parenting pressures. In practice Magdalena draws on several practical approaches. She uses elements of client-centred therapy to follow a person's concerns and build trust.

Cognitive behavioural techniques are applied to spot unhelpful thinking and try new ways of responding. Mindfulness practices are introduced to help notice emotions and reduce overwhelm. She also brings motivational interviewing to conversations about change and substance use, and psychodynamic ideas when exploring early patterns that still affect relationships and behaviour.

Sessions tend to be conversational and aimed at small, achievable steps rather than rushed solutions. Magdalena is based in the United Kingdom and accepts international clients. Many people consult her about parenting stress, relationship strain, anger and adjusting to major life changes.

She explains how the subscription model and scheduling work before a client begins, so they know what to expect.

Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.

Online support

Approaches that suit online parenting support

Magdalena often uses client-centred therapy, which focuses on listening and following what the person brings to each session. This approach helps people feel heard and shapes sessions around their priorities and the immediate issues they want to address.

She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) to help identify patterns of thinking that feed anxiety, low mood or unhelpful behaviour. CBT works by practising new ways of thinking and simple exercises between sessions to test different responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Magdalena will discuss goals, try methods that fit the client's situation, and adjust plans together if something does not feel helpful. This is a collaborative process guided by the client's needs and preferences.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and build rapport, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports brief check-ins, and text-based messaging suits ongoing, shorter reflections. These options make it easier to fit therapy around parenting routines, work and travel while keeping the focus on steady progress.
