About me and my therapy practice
Therapy that sees the person, not just the problem.
I'm Rafał an honours degree-qualified psychotherapist who believes that real change begins with being truly heard.
I work with people who feel emotionally overwhelmed, disconnected, or caught in the cycles of anxiety, addiction or depression. Many of my clients have tried other routes but found them impersonal, medicalised, or overly focused on symptoms.
My approach is different.
Rooted in humanistic and person-centred values, I offer a safe, respectful space where your voice matters. We don’t follow a script. We work together at your pace, on what truly matters to you.
Therapy with me is a collaborative journey toward greater clarity, confidence, and emotional awareness. I help you reconnect with your own strength and explore new perspectives. My practice complies with the ±«ÓãÊÓÆµethical and professional guidelines.
Sessions available:
- Online / phone sessions - available nationwide
- In-person sessions in Leigh-on-Sea, Essex
Special rates for students and those facing financial hardship
I understand that therapy can be a financial commitment. I offer reduced rates because I believe that support should be accessible when it’s most needed.
Practice description
Over the past several years, I’ve worked as a counsellor and psychotherapist across the UK, both privately and within various organisations, supporting clients through a wide range of emotional and mental health challenges.
I offer a confidential, non-judgemental space where you can safely explore what’s beneath the surface and begin to understand yourself on a deeper, more meaningful level.
My first session
I offer a free 30-minute phone or online consultation with no obligation. This initial conversation gives us the opportunity to explore what brings you to therapy and the kind of support you may be looking for.
You’re welcome to ask questions, get a sense of how I work, and decide whether we feel like a good fit. We’ll also discuss practical next steps, including availability and how the process would look if you choose to begin therapy with me.
