Kat Januchowska, BACP

Kat Januchowska offers gentle, direct support for people feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or like they don’t belong. She invites clients to talk about what feels hard right now and to work on clearer, kinder ways of relating to themselves and others. Kat writes simply and listens carefully to what each person brings.

She draws on client-centred and existential approaches to focus on the person’s experience here and now. That means sessions aim to follow what matters to the client and to look at the big questions behind distress, such as meaning, choice and responsibility. The work can include looking at feelings, patterns of behaviour, and how past losses or attachments affect daily life.

Her background includes three years of professional practice and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Kat works in English and Polish. She practises in the United Kingdom and is not accepting international clients.

Common concerns she helps people address include stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy issues, grief and loss, parenting strain, addiction, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. She also offers attention to areas like attachment, adoption and foster care, chronic illness, body image and communication problems.

Sessions follow the person’s pace and priorities. People can expect an open conversation where the therapist reflects back what she hears, helps name patterns, and supports practical next steps between meetings.

How her approaches shape online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening with empathy and reflecting what the person says. It helps when someone needs acceptance, clarity about feelings, or practical support for daily challenges.

Existential Therapy looks at questions of meaning, choice and responsibility. It can be useful for people facing big life changes, grief, or a sense of not fitting in and wanting clearer direction.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss the client’s needs, goals and preferences and decide together which methods to use. This collaborative process helps tailor sessions to what actually helps the person feel less stuck.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare or other commitments. It can also allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, or avoid travel time on busy days. Registered or accredited professionals bring therapeutic methods to sessions whether people meet in person or remotely, and the practical convenience often helps people sustain regular meetings.
