Kristyana Jimdar, BACP

Kristyana Jimdar brings a clear path into counselling work. She holds a BACP accreditation and has practised for three years in the United Kingdom. Her background includes a master's degree in counselling for children and young people and hands-on experience using animal-assisted approaches. Kristyana uses simple, direct ways to help people manage stress, anxiety, grief and relationship problems.

She offers short, practical sessions using tools such as worksheets and journalling. Creative options are also available - clients can share photos or short videos to show what they are feeling when words are hard to find. Her way of working is collaborative and centred on the person in front of her.

Her practice draws on Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy. CBT helps people spot and change unhelpful thought patterns, while solution-focused work concentrates on small steps that move a person forward. Client-centred approaches prioritise the individual's experience and pace.

Kristyana has experience supporting people with depression, trauma and abuse, eating and sleeping problems, anger and low self-esteem. She also helps those dealing with family of origin issues, body image concerns, communication problems and substance-related difficulties. Her work includes addressing complex patterns such as attachment or avoidant personality issues.

Sessions are available in English and she accepts international clients. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Practical matters such as cost vary by location and use a cancellable subscription model.

How these approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the person's lead. Online this means sessions are shaped around the client's concerns and pace, helping people feel understood and heard. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches straightforward techniques to change unhelpful patterns; it is useful for anxiety, low mood and sleep or eating difficulties. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical steps and small goals that move someone forward quickly, which can be helpful when dealing with life changes or specific problems.

Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and how someone responds to different methods. Together they will try approaches that fit the person's needs and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions using video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging offer flexibility. Video calls work well for in-depth conversations and exercises that use worksheets. Phone sessions suit brief check-ins or when less bandwidth is available. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for shorter updates, ongoing support between sessions or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or travel commitments while keeping the focus on practical, meaningful change.
