About Krystyna
Krystyna Jankowska welcomes people seeking practical help with anxiety, stress, grief and life changes. She is a counsellor and psychotherapist who speaks English and Polish. Her work suits people who want clear steps and a steady professional relationship to help them move forward.
Krystyna adopts a mix of short-term and open-ended work. She offers time-limited, solution-focused therapy of up to twelve sessions, and longer counselling paced to each person's needs.
Background and approach
Sessions are shaped around what the individual feels ready to address and change. In sessions she builds a professional relationship rooted in trust and firm boundaries. She works with clients to understand how symptoms started and how they affect daily life.
That understanding is used to select practical ways to manage or reduce those symptoms. Her background includes a degree from the University of Greenwich in London. She identifies as a counsellor and psychotherapist and is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
She draws on several therapies to meet different needs rather than using one fixed method. Krystyna often combines client-centred listening with techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness. Motivational interviewing and emotionally-focused ideas can also be part of sessions when useful.
She aims to help people find steady progress at a pace they choose. Sessions are offered in English and Polish. She currently provides work to people within the United Kingdom and does not accept international clients.

How Krystyna works online
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss goals, preferences and what feels achievable, then agree on methods that suit the person's needs. That collaborative plan can adapt as progress is made.
The therapist currently offers sessions via an online platform and by phone depending on preference. Because formats were specified in her biography, readers should confirm the exact session options and scheduling before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can attend from different locations within the United Kingdom.
