About Renata
Renata Karlinskaite helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, career difficulties and life changes. She uses a mix of agreed counselling methods and works with clients to identify practical steps forward. Renata is registered with NCPS and has five years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.
Renata’s approach begins with listening to each person's account of their difficulties and what they hope to change. She describes clients as the experts on their own lives and draws on their strengths to set realistic goals. Sessions can include talking through current problems, testing out new ways of responding, and setting small tasks between meetings.
She integrates Client-Centred work with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and elements of psychodynamic thinking. That means sessions may focus on immediate patterns of thought and behaviour as well as on longer-standing feelings and relationships. Solution-Focused techniques are used to identify practical steps and measure progress.
Hypnotherapy is also listed among her approaches and may be offered as a complementary tool where appropriate. Renata explains what each technique involves and discusses suitability before use, so clients know what to expect.
People come to Renata for a range of issues including grief, relationship and intimacy-related difficulties, parenting strain, sleeping problems and questions of life purpose. She also supports those working through guilt, shame, body image concerns, isolation and career decisions.
How her approaches translate to remote counselling
Renata uses Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in ways that suit remote work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and helping you make sense of your own thoughts and choices, which works well in conversation-based sessions. CBT looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour and often involves specific exercises or small tasks that can be set between meetings.
She also lists hypnotherapy as an option; hypnotherapy in remote sessions would involve guided relaxation and focused suggestion to support goal-directed change, discussed first to check suitability. The therapist will explain any method and together you will decide what fits your needs and preferences.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Renata will collaborate with each person to agree goals and try methods that suit their circumstances. This means changing direction if something is not helpful and tracking practical progress over time.

Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow more flexible appointments, but check the offered session types and timings when you arrange the first meeting.
