About Jolanta
Hello, I am Jolanta, a fully qualified Integrative Counsellor specialising in relationship therapy. My approach is rooted in the belief that understanding our thoughts, feelings and patterns of behaviour is key to fostering healthier connections. In our sessions, I draw upon a wide range of therapeutic approaches tailored to your specific needs, including elements of CBT, Person-Centred and Psychodynamic therapy. When working with couples, I incorporate techniques from Emotionally Focused Therapy, Attachment Therapy, Imago Relationship Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy.
Whether you are looking to strengthen your bond or are navigating the difficult process of an amicable separation, I aim to provide a safe and non-judgmental space. We will explore your core values, love languages and early attachment experiences to understand how they influence your current relationship dynamics. My goal is to help you move forward positively, whether that involves resolving long-standing conflicts or managing major life transitions such as infertility, illness or bereavement.
I work in a relational way, focusing on what is happening in the here and now. I endeavour to demonstrate care, empathy and respect at all times. I am not here to judge or take sides. Instead, I aim to help you gain a deeper understanding of each other’s perspectives. I also offer therapy in both English and Polish, ensuring a comfortable experience for clients from diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds
