About Robert
Robert Paczkowski meets people who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed or unsure where to turn. He writes simply and directly, and offers short or longer courses of counselling to help people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship strain, grief and low self-esteem. Sessions can also support people facing parenting pressures, identity questions, or body image and eating concerns.
He works in a person-centred way, putting the client’s perspective first. That means listening without judgement and helping people make sense of their experience.
Background and approach
He also draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to tackle patterns of thinking and behaviour that maintain distress. Robert trained as a person-centred counsellor and holds membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and NCPS. He has seven years of practice and brings experience with short-term and longer-term work.
He has an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check. Sessions are offered in English and Polish and are available to people in the United Kingdom as well as international clients. Robert uses a non-directive stance while also discussing practical strategies when they help.
He will negotiate with each person whether they prefer a brief solution-focused plan or more open-ended exploration. People who begin with him can expect straightforward conversation about their goals, steady listening, and options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. The first meeting is used to agree the approach and set the pace together.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will discuss goals and preferences with each person and agree a plan together. That might mean mostly reflective, exploratory sessions, or a more structured programme using CBT and solution-focused techniques for practical change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging, which make counselling flexible. Video is useful for in-depth conversations where visual cues matter. Phone sessions are easier when bandwidth is limited or for short check-ins. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer written reflection or need brief, immediate contact. These options help fit counselling around work, study and family life.
