About Magdalena
Magdalena Seremak-Kaczmarczyk is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years of professional experience. She trained at the University of Bolton, completing an MSc in Counselling and Positive Psychology. Magdalena works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, self-esteem and family and parenting issues.
She draws on what people are aware of and what sits under the surface. That means looking at patterns that repeat and the beliefs that keep them in place. Sessions focus on practical steps as well as understanding how past experiences shape present reactions.
Magdalena uses several approaches in her work. These include client-centred methods that follow the person's pace, cognitive behavioural ideas for changing unhelpful thoughts and mindfulness practices to manage strong feelings. She also includes motivational interviewing and psychodynamic ideas when they fit the person's needs.
She has experience supporting people facing addiction, homelessness, exploitation and family breakdown from volunteering roles. That background informs a direct, grounded style that aims to make sense of difficult experiences without jargon.
Sessions are offered in English and Polish. Magdalena accepts international clients and works with adults dealing with relationship strain, parenting pressures, career stress, loss and major life changes. To begin, people are asked to complete a brief questionnaire and book an initial meeting.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches used and online sessions
Magdalena works with client-centred therapy, which means she follows the person's lead, listens closely and helps them find their own solutions. This approach can help people feel understood and talk through pressing family or parenting concerns.She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression and coping with stressful life changes. Mindfulness therapy is included as well; it teaches simple attention and breathing practices to manage strong emotions and reduce reactivity.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Magdalena will discuss options with the person and agree together which methods to try first. That makes the process collaborative and allows adjustments if something does not fit.
Session formats are not specified in the profile, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins during work breaks and remove travel time. If video or phone sessions are available, they can make attendance easier when juggling parenting or shift work.
