About Barbora
She brings experience from critical care settings and understands compassion fatigue from that background. That experience informs how she talks with people who feel overwhelmed, burned out or numb. Sessions focus on practical ways to cope day to day alongside longer term changes.
Barbora helps people process trauma and abuse at a pace that feels manageable. She also supports those facing life transitions such as midlife change, fertility or cancer-related concerns. Issues around body image, attachment and guilt are part of her work too.
For people struggling with process addictions - including gambling, exercise and porn - she offers steady, non-judgemental support and helps build alternative coping strategies. Barbora also works with bereavement, hospice and end-of-life concerns in a sensitive way.
Her approach is collaborative: she listens first, then shapes a plan with clear, realistic steps. The aim is to help people feel more able to cope, make decisions and move toward a life that feels more satisfying. To begin, clients follow the site's matching and booking steps.

Evidence-based techniques and online support
Barbora describes her practice as using evidence-based therapeutic techniques. That can include approaches that teach practical coping skills for anxiety and depression and methods that help people process traumatic memories in small, manageable steps. These approaches aim to reduce distressing symptoms and build everyday skills for coping and decision-making.She also focuses on relieving compassion fatigue and supporting recovery from process addictions by helping clients develop healthier routines and alternatives to harmful behaviours. Those interventions often combine short-term strategies for immediate relief with longer-term plans to change patterns that cause distress.
Finding the right approach is a shared task. Barbora works collaboratively to identify which techniques fit a person’s needs, goals and preferences. If something is not working, she will adjust the plan so the work feels helpful and realistic.

Online therapy can help fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing appointments around work or caregiving. It can make it easier to have shorter check-ins, avoid commuting, or keep therapy consistent when routines change.
