Renata Juraske, NCPS

Renata Juraske is a counsellor who brings a blend of person-centred, cognitive behavioural and psychodynamic ways of working to sessions. She offers a calm space to talk about things like anxiety, depression, grief, anger and relationship concerns. Renata speaks English and Lithuanian and practises in the United Kingdom. She holds NCPS as a listed credential and has five years' experience. Renata adapts her approach to match each person's needs rather than using one method for everyone. She aims to help people understand what is happening for them and to develop practical coping skills. That can include working on self-esteem, eating and body image worries, addiction-related issues, or problems tied to family of origin and attachment. When trauma or abuse is part of the story, she uses trauma-focused and psychodynamic ideas to explore how past experiences shape present reactions. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to spot patterns of thinking and try small changes that reduce distress. Solution-focused elements help set clear, achievable goals for change. Renata emphasises a non-judgemental, respectful space where people can talk through difficult feelings. The goal is for people to leave feeling better equipped to manage life stresses and to notice where they can be their own support. She encourages practical tools and skills alongside reflection about the past. To begin, the site matching process asks a few questions and then you can schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability. The subscription used for sessions can be cancelled at any time.

How Renata's approaches translate to online work

Renata commonly blends Client-Centred Therapy with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Trauma-Focused ideas. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, acceptance and helping someone find their own solutions, which can be useful for building trust and exploring emotions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours and introduces small practical changes to reduce anxiety or low mood. Trauma-Focused Therapy attends to the impact of past harm and helps people make sense of how those experiences affect daily reactions and relationships.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then tailor sessions so techniques match those aims. That conversation is collaborative and may shift over time as needs change.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm options before booking. In general, remote sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare or travel by removing commute time and allowing flexible scheduling. Some people prefer shorter check-ins when life is busy, while others use longer sessions for deeper reflection. Discussing how sessions will be run helps set expectations and makes it simpler to plan therapy alongside everyday commitments.
