Agnieszka Maj, BACP

Agnieszka Maj is a counsellor with three years of professional experience practising in the United Kingdom. She draws on a humanistic outlook and treats each person as an individual. She speaks English and Polish and uses an open, creative approach to shape sessions around what the client needs.

Her work commonly addresses stress, anxiety and depression. She also helps people who are struggling after trauma or abusive relationships. Relationship difficulties and low self-esteem are frequent themes in her practice.

Agnieszka uses a mix of approaches to match the person in front of her. That can mean short, goal-focused work or deeper exploration of patterns that repeat across life. Sessions aim to help people build confidence, find a clearer sense of self and make practical changes.

She is experienced supporting people with attachment issues, body image concerns, codependency and communication problems. Agnieszka also works with topics such as dissociation, addiction, gender dysphoria, HIV/AIDS and the emotional effects of infidelity.

Clients can expect a respectful, non-judgemental atmosphere and a collaborative way of planning what to focus on. Agnieszka adapts her methods to each person, combining practical steps with reflective conversation so people can start to notice different choices in daily life.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online

Agnieszka commonly draws on Client-Centred Therapy, Existential Therapy and Psychodynamic ideas to guide online work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the person’s lead so they feel heard and understood; it helps with low self-esteem and relationship worries. Existential Therapy looks at meaning, choice and responsibility and is useful for people feeling stuck or struggling with life direction. Psychodynamic ideas explore recurring life patterns and past influences to help make sense of repeated difficulties and emotional reactions.

Choosing the right approach is usually a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about goals and preferences, then suggest ways of working that fit those aims. Plans can change as sessions progress to keep the focus useful and relevant.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls are close to an in-person conversation and work well for deeper exploration. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and messaging are helpful for shorter check-ins or when someone prefers writing. These options let people fit therapy around their life and pace the level of contact they want.
