About Patrycja

Patrycja Czyszczon helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, low mood and life changes using person-centred work and practical techniques. She is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years' experience.

Patrycja uses a person-centred way of working that focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and to practise small behaviour changes. Solution-focused ideas are used to highlight what is already working and to set short-term, achievable goals.

Her early volunteering with Age UK gave her experience supporting people facing grief, bereavement, anxiety and depression. She also volunteered with Trafford Carers supporting people with the emotional strain of caring responsibilities. These roles shaped her practical approach to everyday problems.

In private practice she offers counselling to adults from a range of cultural backgrounds. She combines empathic listening with practical tools so sessions can include reflection, skill-building and goal-setting. She regularly attends continuing professional development workshops to keep her methods current.

Patrycja holds a Level 5 Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and a Level 5 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling, along with other counselling qualifications. She is DBS checked and has professional insurance for her counselling work.

Sessions are conducted in English. The frequency and length of sessions are decided between counsellor and client, and can be discussed when booking the first appointment.

How her therapeutic approaches work for online counselling

Client-centred work focuses on listening and reflecting what the client says, helping them to clarify feelings and priorities in their own words. This approach supports people who want a space to talk things through and be heard without direction.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) teaches simple techniques to notice and test unhelpful thoughts and to practise small behaviour changes. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and panic symptoms because it links thoughts, feelings and actions in practical ways.

Solution-focused therapy looks at strengths and recent successes to set short-term, achievable goals. It can help when someone wants quick, concrete steps to move forward from a specific problem.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The counsellor will work with the client to decide which methods suit their needs, goals and preferences and adapt the work as those needs change.

The practical benefits of online counselling include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to maintain regular sessions alongside work, family and other commitments.
