About Agnieszka

Agnieszka Haldys helps people work through stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief and depression. She uses a client-led style and believes people know their own stories and strengths. Agnieszka is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years of professional experience in the UK.

Agnieszka works in a straightforward, conversational way. Sessions focus on what is most pressing for the person who comes to counselling. She asks questions, listens to each person’s account, and uses practical methods from approaches such as cognitive behavioural work and attachment-based thinking to help with day-to-day problems.

She also draws on skills from dialectical behaviour approaches and existential ideas when these suit someone’s situation. That can mean helping with emotion regulation, looking at patterns in relationships, or discussing values and meaning when life feels difficult.

People who come with addictions, trauma or grief will find an emphasis on pacing and on building coping skills. For stress and anxiety the work often includes practical strategies to reduce unhelpful thoughts and behaviours alongside exploring how past attachments affect current reactions.

Agnieszka offers sessions in English and Polish. She works with people in the United Kingdom and accepts international clients. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and costs vary with location.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work

Agnieszka uses cognitive behavioural therapy to help identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviours, which can be useful for stress, anxiety and low mood. Attachment-based work is used to look at how early relationship patterns affect feelings and reactions in current relationships, which can help with trust, abandonment and communication problems.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most practical, and they will adapt methods as the sessions progress in a collaborative way.

Practical benefits of using online sessions include fitting counselling around work or family commitments and having shorter check-ins when needed. If you plan to work online, confirm the exact session formats available before booking, as this profile does not list specific formats. Registered or accredited professionals often offer a mix of session lengths and times to suit everyday life.
