About Karolina
Karolina Orenczak is a BACP counsellor who uses attachment-based and client-centred approaches to help people manage stress, anxiety, addiction and trauma. She works in a direct, compassionate way and focuses on building safety and trust so people can talk about hard experiences. Her practice also addresses depression, grief, intimacy difficulties and questions about identity and relationships.
Karolina draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns.
Background and approach
She uses mindfulness techniques to help people feel steadier in the moment. Motivational interviewing is part of her work when someone is making changes around substance use or other habits. Her background includes six years of clinical experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
She brings that experience to sessions in the United Kingdom and works in English. Karolina also has training that informs her trauma-focused work and attachment work. Typical sessions are practical and paced to the person’s needs.
Therapy may include talking, noticing patterns from the past, simple mindfulness exercises and helping people find steps they can try between sessions. She also supports people navigating parenting stress, fertility concerns, eating and food-related issues, and post-traumatic stress. Karolina has written an Inner Child Workbook and Journal that offers exercises to continue the work outside sessions.
People interested in starting are invited to complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange sessions that suit their schedule.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is part of the process and is decided together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then try methods that suit the individual. This collaborative approach allows adjustments as therapy progresses so the work stays relevant and practical.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat support shorter check-ins or ongoing contact between longer sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, childcare and daily life while keeping the focus on steady progress and real-world steps.
