About Robert
Robert Paczkowski is a counsellor who aims to help people make life clearer and more manageable. He offers a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk about stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship worries, grief and self-esteem. He works in English and Polish and practises in the United Kingdom.
Robert follows a person-centred way of working that puts the client's experience first. He also uses cognitive behavioural techniques, psychodynamic thinking and solution-focused ideas when these fit a person's goals.
Background and approach
In a first meeting he will talk about what approach might suit each person and whether a short-term or open-ended course of counselling is preferable. Sessions are offered with respect for professional ethical standards. He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and holds NCPS, which are noted credentials in his biography.
He has an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check. Robert has around seven years' experience supporting people through issues such as depression, trauma and abuse, parenting stresses, anger, body image and addictions. He also helps with problems tied to family of origin, communication struggles and immigration-related strain.
People who choose to work with him can expect a listening, non-directive approach that emphasises understanding and acceptance. Practical options and steps are discussed together so clients leave sessions with clearer thinking and next steps they feel ready to try.

How Robert works online
Cognitive behavioural techniques look at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and support practical steps to reduce anxiety, manage mood, or change unhelpful habits. He also uses psychodynamic thinking at times to look at past patterns that influence current behaviour, which can help with attachment or abandonment concerns.
Finding the right mix of approaches is collaborative. The therapist will discuss what feels best based on the client's goals, experience and preferences. Together they decide whether to try brief, targeted work or a longer conversation-focused course.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm which formats are currently offered before booking. Many people find remote counselling helps fit therapy into a busy week, reduces travel time, and lets them attend from more flexible locations. It can also make shorter check-ins or more regular appointments easier to arrange, depending on the options the service provides.
