About Anna

Anna Zielinska is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self‑esteem, and depression. She works in English and Polish and welcomes international clients. Anna uses a person-centred way of working that focuses on each person's strengths and experiences.

Her style is warm and straightforward. Sessions aim to create space to talk through what matters most. Anna listens without judgement and supports people to make changes at their own pace. She sees the person, not just the problem.

Anna practises Client-Centred Therapy, which puts the client's voice at the heart of the process. This means she follows each person's lead and helps them find solutions that fit their life. The approach is often useful for issues like relationship struggles, anxiety, and healing after difficult experiences.

She holds BACP, which stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Anna has three years of professional experience working with a range of concerns, including some focused areas such as ageing and geriatric issues, caregiving stress, chronic illness, body image and communication problems.

People who work with her can expect practical conversation in a calm setting. She will help identify small, doable steps to reduce stress and improve day-to-day coping. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability.

How Client‑Centred Therapy works for online care

Client‑Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own perspective. It involves open listening, reflecting what the person says, and encouraging them to find their own solutions. This approach can help with anxiety, relationship issues, low self‑esteem and recovery from difficult experiences.

In practice, the therapist follows the client's lead rather than imposing a fixed plan. Conversations are guided by what matters most to the person and the therapist helps shape next steps collaboratively. Together they will test different ways of working to find what fits the client's goals and preferences.

Session formats are not listed in the original biography, so please confirm which online options are available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by removing travel time, allowing shorter check‑in appointments, or letting someone join from a different location. It can also help people maintain continuity of care when they move or travel. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists on the service will discuss practical arrangements and adapt the approach to suit each person's needs and circumstances.
