About Aneta
Aneta Kolodziejska is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with three years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, parenting pressures and relationship worries. Sessions are offered in English and Polish for those who prefer either language.
Her work begins with listening to what feels most urgent. She helps people name their feelings and spot patterns that keep causing pain. Conversations are practical and focused on small changes that can make daily life easier.
She draws on client-centred ideas, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and psychodynamic thinking. That combination lets her focus both on current habits and on longer-standing patterns from past relationships. CBT tools are used to challenge unhelpful thoughts, while psychodynamic ideas help make sense of recurring emotional reactions.
Many people come to her because family life feels strained or because parenting has become overwhelming. She helps individuals explore communication problems, fatherhood issues, caregiving stress, and family conflict without taking over the story. Work can include coping strategies for addiction, managing compassion fatigue, or dealing with life changes such as separation or immigration.
Practical skills are part of the sessions. Clients practise ways to reduce worry, improve sleep, cope with grief, and manage anger. The aim is clearer thinking and steadier mood rather than quick fixes. To begin, people use the site's matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How her approaches are used in online therapy
Client-centred work focuses on understanding the person's experience and responding to what matters most to them. This approach helps people feel heard and clarifies which problems to tackle first.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills for changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour. It is often used for anxiety, low mood, stress and sleep problems and involves exercises you can practise between sessions.
Psychodynamic ideas look at patterns that repeat over time, including how early relationships shape current reactions. This can be helpful when someone wants to understand why they keep getting stuck in the same emotional cycles.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and decide together with the client which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaboration helps shape a plan that can adjust as needs change.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy household schedule, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often use online work to support steady progress while keeping therapy practical for everyday life.
