About Malgorzata
Malgorzata Miernik works with people on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, and coping with life changes. She uses a collaborative, person-centred style and offers practical exercises and gentle challenge to help clients notice patterns and build clarity. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has six years of experience.
Malgorzata draws on person-centred counselling as a core approach, focusing on listening and understanding what matters to each person. Sessions are conversational and aim to identify thoughts, feelings and behaviours that are keeping problems going. She may suggest creative exercises or reflective tasks between sessions to support progress.
Her background includes a Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling Skills (Person-Centred) accredited by the BACP. She has also trained in areas such as life coaching, art therapy, Jungian sand-play, group facilitation and telephone and online counselling. These experiences inform how she adapts sessions for different clients.
Malgorzata has worked with people affected by sexual abuse and has supported individuals involved in court processes. She has experience facilitating groups and supporting refugees, asylum seekers and migrants through charity work, and has taught on introductory counselling courses.
Sessions are offered in English and Polish. International clients are accepted. Before booking, clients should confirm the current session formats offered.
How her therapeutic approaches work for online sessions
Person-centred counselling places the person's experience at the centre of sessions. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what is said and helps the person make sense of their feelings and choices. This approach suits issues such as stress, anxiety and low self-esteem where understanding personal thoughts and feelings is important.
Creative approaches such as art-based exercises or sand-play draw on non-verbal expression. These methods give another way to show feelings and patterns when words are hard to find, and can help with trauma-related material and relationship or intimacy concerns.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss options and agree which methods to try based on the client's needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process rather than a fixed prescription.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week and avoiding travel time. If you plan to use online or telephone sessions, confirm the current formats before booking so you know what is offered. Online sessions can make it easier to have a shorter check-in when time is limited, or to use telephone-only contact if bandwidth is an issue.
Sessions take place through BetterHelp by video, phone or messaging. We will earn a commission if you sign up.
