About Magdalena
Magdalena Seremak-Kaczmarczyk is a counsellor and a member of the BACP with three years' experience working in the United Kingdom. She lists stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression among the areas she works with. She also notes a focus on relationship and family issues, parenting, anger, career concerns and coping with life changes.
She trained at the University of Bolton and holds an MSc in Counselling and Positive Psychology. Before working in private practice she volunteered for several years with a free counselling service. That work involved supporting people facing a wide range of problems, including domestic violence, sexual abuse, substance misuse and homelessness.
Her approach looks at patterns beneath conscious thought. She uses person-centred ideas alongside cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness. Motivational interviewing and psychodynamic ideas are also part of her toolkit. She says these help people understand how they respond to problems and consider different ways of coping.
Sessions aim to be a non-judgemental place to talk through problems and feelings. Magdalena works with practical steps as well as talking about the past when that is helpful. She also uses elements of positive psychology and solution-focused techniques to help people work toward change.
She offers counselling in English and Polish. International clients are accepted. Before booking, readers should confirm current session formats and practical details on the service page.
Therapeutic approaches and remote counselling
Magdalena uses a person-centred way of working which focuses on the client's experience and personal values. This approach supports people who need to feel heard and understood while they consider changes.She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood and unhelpful coping habits. Mindfulness techniques appear in her work to help with stress and to build attention to present-moment experience.
Choosing which approach to use is part of the process. Magdalena will discuss options with each person and decide on techniques together based on needs and preferences. That conversation may change as therapy progresses and new goals emerge.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow a shorter check-in when needed. It also lets people access a counsellor in a different location or time zone when that is helpful.
