About Karina

Karina Kaminski uses a client-centred approach to meet people where they are. She combines practical techniques with compassionate listening to help with stress, anxiety, grief and relationship difficulties. Karina works with adults facing low self-esteem, depression, anger, parenting strain and coping with life changes. She holds NCPS as a credential and practises in the United Kingdom.

Karina keeps sessions straightforward and focused. She helps people break down worries into manageable steps and teaches simple skills to reduce panic and anxiety. When grief or loss is present she makes space for the emotions while helping clients find ways to move forward at their own pace.

Cognitive behavioural tools are used to spot unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of responding. Mindfulness techniques are offered to anchor attention and reduce overwhelm. Solution-focused conversations help clarify goals and plan small, achievable changes.

Her background includes three years working directly with people facing trauma, bereavement, domestic abuse, and relationship strain. That experience informs a style that is practical, warm and non-judgemental. Karina says respectful listening is central to making change possible.

Sessions can include discussion of adoption and foster-care related concerns, attachment issues, body image and caregiver stress. She also supports people dealing with control issues, dependent personality features, panic attacks, paranoia and post-traumatic stress. The aim is to build coping skills and restore a sense of agency.

People who choose Karina can expect collaborative planning, clear tasks between sessions and attention to everyday life pressures. She explains interventions plainly and adapts pace to each person’s needs.

Practical approaches for online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding each person's perspective and building a trusting therapeutic relationship. It involves open listening and reflecting to help people clarify what they want to change and to support their own solutions.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions. It teaches straightforward tools to reduce panic attacks, ease anxiety and tackle low mood by testing and changing unhelpful thinking patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Karina will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean combining client-centred listening with CBT or mindfulness exercises as sessions progress.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls suit longer discussions and visual connection, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging work well for shorter check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, parenting and day-to-day life while keeping the focus on clear goals and useful skills.
