About Krystyna
Krystyna Jankowska is a counsellor and psychotherapist who focuses on helping people find better sleep and more restful days. She speaks English and Polish and meets people where they are, using simple, practical conversations to reduce anxiety and improve daily functioning.
She aims to build a clear working relationship based on trust and steady boundaries. Sessions explore what keeps symptoms going and look for small changes that make life easier. Krystyna offers both short-term, solution-focused work of up to twelve sessions and longer open-ended counselling paced to the client’s needs.
In sessions she works collaboratively to uncover patterns that affect mood, sleep and relationships. That might include managing stress, grief, anger, addictive behaviours or parenting strains. The work is practical and paced by the person in therapy rather than imposed timelines.
Her approach draws on client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural ideas to adjust unhelpful thoughts and emotionally-focused techniques to address relational pain. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are also used to support coping and behaviour change.
Krystyna trained at the University of Greenwich and has four years of experience in practice. She holds BACP registration, which is shown as BACP. She currently works from the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English and Polish.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability. Subscription billing is used for sessions and can be cancelled at any time.
How therapy approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client’s priorities. It helps when someone needs a steady, accepting space to talk through stress, sleep disruption or grief. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviours keep problems going and introduces practical strategies to change them, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood and disrupted sleep.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the person to choose which methods suit their needs and goals. That choice can shift as work progresses, with regular check-ins to make sure the approach still fits.
Krystyna offers sessions online and by phone depending on client preference; please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a weeknight or a lunch break and can reduce travel time. Phone sessions can be a simpler way to start if someone prefers not to be on camera. Practical benefits include being able to keep momentum between sessions and use tools learned in real life soon after discussing them.
